I think what you said is spot on. Money is a commodity, not speech. Money is something you have in your possession. It is physical. Speech is different. It is not a commodity. Speech is not what the SCOTUS said it is. The little guy spoke last night and said that the Big Money people were not going to get away with buying this election. It makes me proud to be an American.
