Federal Court Voids Campaign Finance Reform Rules"A federal appeals court overturned hard-fought campaign finance reform regulations in a ruling on Friday that will make it easier for independent political groups to raise and spend money to influence elections."
"The groups 'are now free to accept unlimited contributions, to spend unlimited funds independently supporting or opposing federal candidates," said Richard L. Hasen, a professor at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles and an election law expert. 'One of the things we know about outside groups, as opposed to political parties, is that ,they run more negative ads. . . . This could lead to a more negative campaign season.'" (emphasis added). Negative adds means mudslinging, which usually is very BIASED and doesn't give all the FACTS. Thus swaying voters with emotional appeals instead of the TRUTH!!!! I don't like negative ads - I just want the facts so that I can make up my OWN mind instead of having someone else's opinion shoved down my throat. If it meant independent groups who were out to spread info and not LIES I would be happy because it would make it easier to find out the TRUTH about candidates. Perhaps because spending is easier now we will get more of the facts... but I'm not sure that's what's going to happen, in fact I doubt that that's whats going to happen
