From the article:
“Olson is defending a group whose 90-minute movie attacked
Hillary Rodham Clinton during her presidential campaign last
year. Federal courts said the movie looked and sounded like
a long campaign ad and therefore should be regulated like one.”

I am listening right now to the oral arguments on campaign finance on CSpan. Sotomayor is acting like the fool she is

I’m surprised why she didn’t ask why there were no wise latinas arguing this case in front of the court. Missing any makes the case much more difficult to decide.

It’s obvious why the Democrats love McCain-Feingold. Because the rules only apply to Republicans, and to conservative organizations.
