darren in los angeles and carrie in atlanta.question a lot of people are asking right now is is this some sort of supreme court sequel to the citizens united case which allowed for unlimited expenditures? >> the law in general is supposed to change and to evolve and to be responsive to the changing circumstances in society. since that fundamental case came down with the limitations to campaign contributions, obviously, things have changed. the dollar is worth a different amount than it used to be. sadly, it's a heck of a lot less. and so the law is now now apparently open to flexibility. then only the truly wealthy will be able to have influence in how the government -- the business of government is done. so that's the tension that the court's going to be wrestling with, and it will be fascinating to see how all of that plays out. >> carrie, legally the issue for the court is on contributions and spending. they have distinguished between the two, and contributions have been more regulated, spending less regulated. can you explai
