Each party is accepting these funds, but just recently Romney's supporters were given $200,000,000 by rich corporations and individuals whose names do not have to be disclosed. I believe these donors would expect favors of some kind, wouldn't you ???.

Why should we be outraged? The Supreme Courts says it is free speech.
I really don't see why a person, or a group of persons, or a coproration, or any other entity should be limited in giving whatever they choose to the candidate of their choice.
Why should the government limit contributions. I am especially puzzled by the Cons reactions to these Super Pacs.
After all, it is always the Cons whinning about the government interferring in our lives. But now, they want the government to dictate how much a coproration or PAC can contribute to a candidate?
