I did not cast my vote for Bush so he could commit political suicide. I put him in there to do two things: Advance a conservative agenda where possible, and to help get more conservatives elected. This is a war, and you do what has to be done in war.
A principled loser is still a loser. You will only set back efforts to defend the very principles you espouse if you don't accept the fact that we need to elect more conservatives before we can do things your way.
You're also forgetting the name of the bill. This piece of dreck came out of your party. A GOP president signed it into law. Do you really think that if this is killed by the Supremes that it won't be back? You obviously don't know your party or their "opposition".
Campaign finance reform should be achieved by changing the ethics rules in the House and the Senate. The rules on what is proper in campaign financing should apply only to the people in the position to accept the money. If legislation wasn't for sale by both parties' politicians to the highest bidder, none of this would even be an issue.
Bush could have(if he didn't want this crap himself) simply vetoed the bill and stated in his little speech that campaign finance reforms can best be made by changing Congressional ethics, not by passing laws restricting anyone other than those in the position to take the bribes.
That's what all of this is about, bribes. That's what campaign contributions are: bribes. This whole pile of crap concerning "soft money, hard money and PACs" is a problem today because an earlier unprincipled GOP president signed into law an earlier POS bill which created the whole Gordian Knot we now have in front of us.
