The law was challenged as unconstitutional by groups and individuals including the California State Democratic Party, the National Rifle Association, and Republican Senator Mitch McConnell (Kentucky), the Senate Majority Whip. After moving through lower courts, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a special session in September 2003. On Wednesday, December 10, 2003, the Supreme Court issued a ruling that upheld the key provisions of McCain-Feingold; the vote on the court was 5 to 4. Justices John Paul Stevens and Sandra Day O'Connor wrote the majority opinion; they were joined by David Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Stephen Breyer, and opposed by Chief Justice William Rehnquist, Anthony Kennedy, Clarence Thomas, and Antonin Scalia.

Maybe they should challenge it again, O'Connor is gone.

"Maybe they should challenge it again, O'Connor is gone."

As far as I'm concerned any patriot should openly flaunt this law. Its unconstitutional no matter what any court says. The Constitution is clearly worded so should be no debate. I should read the majority opinion to see what kind of trash they used to excuse their edict, but its way to late and I gotta write a paper about genetically modified food for a crazy geography class.
