Unlikely allies team up to denounce today's Supreme Court Citizens United v. FEC ruling

Submitted by Johnny Papagiannis on Thu, 01/21/2010 - 2:30pm.

Today in The Daily Beast former Bush campaign operative, Mark McKinnon, and former Obama operative, Steve Hildebrand, have written an op-ed decrying today's Supreme Court decision in the Citizens United v. FEC case.

"We both believe that there is too much “interested” money in politics today and not enough of the small donor contributions that drove the Obama campaign’s fundraising. The Citizens United decision makes this bad situation worse. It will unleash an unlimited amount of corporate political spending, and fuel an escalating campaign fundraising arms race among members of Congress to keep up. They spend too much time fundraising already—time that gets in the way of doing the work they’re supposed to do."
