You can now find statements and video from yesterday’s hearing on S. 1285 here on the Senate Rules and Administration Committee site. Nick Nyhart, who testified at the hearing, offers his thoughts on the hearing here on the Huffington Post. On the Center for Competitive Politics blog, Paul Sherman offers these thoughts, accusing Sen. Specter of “outrageous hyperbole” for comparing Buckley v. Valeo to Dred Scott.
Update: Also on the CCP blog, Brad Smith has this comment on “the disconnect between advocates of campaign finance ‘reform’ and the reality of the electoral process.”
