That could be changed though, not by deliberately changing the law to specifically do so, but by changing communication laws about the internet as the internet becomes more of a mass medium (ie: making it officially a cable or satellite media). That event could even be hastened by groups using the internet to circumvent this new law.
I should correct something: it is not the fundraising that Jim may have to change then but the future anonymity of future FR donors (as I understand the law) to continue using donations to publish "electioneering communications" on FR during the restricted periods.
Just musing about the future, I hope no one starts going nuts over this!
Heck, perhaps we'd have the same consideration as the politically protected "official media".
Well thats where we are heading. If several of us band together to buy bandwidth and create blogs skewering our political opponents within 60 days of an election, are we subject ot Devils Island? Of course we are because 5 morons have just said so. The costs alone of the litigation forthcoming will demand an increase in taxes.
