Supreme Court could rule as early as Monday on Montana-related review of Citizens United
"It's way beyond appearances. For one thing, the idea that Super PACs are really truly actually independent of the campaigns of candidates they support is something even those who just fell off a turnip truck can't possibly believe. Politicians may not be purchased quite so easily and openly as they were 100 years ago when Montana decided it had to act, but the differences between then and now have narrowed considerably since Citizens United was decided. Even half a step back on that ruling would be an improvement."
