Haven't looked deep into the thought behind the "money is speech" situation, but it seems extreme to say that giving money is the same as talking. Let's assume Alice supports a candidate not because of their general positions but because of a certain niche position that person A thinks is really important. If you hate a certain position the candidate believes but person A might feel ambivalent about, is it fair to redirect that anger to Alice? The major difference I see between the candidate and Alice is simply that if another candidate that came along without the position you may hate but still having the niche belief, they may switch quite quickly.
