Money is certainly mother’s milk in politics.

But, what is the alternative? Tax payer funded elections with prohibitions on direct donations to individual politicians or political parties? That will not be good for conservatives.

I think a much better solution is term limits. That will require amending constitution via state legislatures. The DC politicians will never vote themselves out of power.
