I think they'll have to repeal the First Amendment.

This is exactly what the First Amendment is for.

The courts already upheld that the right of free speech doesn't apply during the election cycle.

I think they already did, when the Supreme Court found the Campaign Finance Reform Act constitutional. It just wasn't reported that way. Instead it was reported as a victory for "the people". ('Course they meant "the People" in the sense used in "People's Republic" or "People's Army, meaning the state)
