11. Although we're angry, they might be right.

I'm not going to claim I know what the right answer is. It just seems to me that the SCOTUS might be right that corporations can spend lots of money on campaign under our constitution. The facts of the cases in Montana certainly demonstrate how that legal right can be abused by those same companies.

My point is that perhaps we shouldn't be railing against SCOTUS but discussing strategies to organizing voters and working on an amendment to the constitution doing away with that right. It will be very difficult considering the massive amounts of money that will be poured into congress to oppose that amendment. I am sure it will have to be a very well led grass roots movement organized on the web, perhaps?
