RE: If Walmart decides to take their money and give it to the other candidate, you will lose

So, corporations do not have limits to how much they can contribute to a candidate but individuals do?

If there is enough money, it doesn’t matter on the limits.

You give some directly, some to the opposing parties election committee, some to a few PAC’s, some to local NGO’s and community organizers. At some point, you realize that there is millions of dollars against you across the spectrum, and some of it is in your own party. That doesn’t take into account the side deals, offers for stores in certain areas, fact finding trips to warmer climes, and all the other side and fringe ways to gain influence.

Make no mistake, if you’re a candidate and you anger a corporation, you will have a lot of people lined up against you.
