WaPo reports.

LA Times: “Looking for a little late-night campaign disclosure politics? Click over to C-SPAN2, as Senate Democrats plan to keep the Senate open well past midnight Eastern time to protest a Republican filibuster of the Disclose Act.”

NYT Editorial: “The measure’s chief sponsor, Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, has tried to win Republican support by eliminating a provision requiring that the top five donors be identified at the end of election commercials. But Republicans turned their backs, including John McCain, once the great champion of campaign finance reform who has been predicting that ‘huge scandals’ will inevitably flow from Citizens United.”

Laments from CLC and Demos.  Will link to more cheers and jeers when I see them.
