Personally I thought the decision was excellent.
It so unleashed a torrent of money into the political system as to make all money basically worthless. It was a case of massive devaluation of influence in a sense.
The recent campaigns have been telling. Candidates are losing who are outspending their opponents $30 million to $2 million (15:1). That should not be happening. But the influence that money buys you anymore is weak, and if anything makes you look worse.
It did suck for the first few years with the Koch Brothers, but now even the Tea Party hates them (thank god).
