The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine

9. I think we need to distinguish between

PACs created by the Mothership that take most of the money for themselves and politicians who need grass roots donations because they don't have PACS and don't take corporate money.

Without fundraising, you won't have any Democractic candidates to vote for. The Republicans have more billionaires. Obama won on small dollar donations raised online.

Yes, the system needs to be changed, but we need a majority for Campaign finance reform and a SCOTUS majority to end Citizens United.
The low hanging fruit here is the DNC allowing the Mothership pacs to take 98% of donations. This is a self-inflicted injury and we can't win if the DNC isn't looking out for us.
