But a few frogmarched off in cuffs to federal prison will cure that!

Dream on, but remember that Corzine is still a free man. Only peons get frogmarched into jail.

As we've found out via Clinton Cash, and the lack of verification for credit card money in the 2008 Obama campaign, a lot of the campaign money is already anonymous, at least as far as you and I and the FEC is concerned.

There is no way for big money to be anonymous to the candidate. They are always told when the big checks are coming, from who, and when they arrive and clear. They need to know who to thank, and how to thank them.

All a law about anonymous political contributions would do is to legalize everything Hillary did as noted in the book 'Clinton Cash'. It would put a public 'for sale to highest bidder' on the White House front lawn, to replace the hidden one tattooed on Hillary's butt.

Point is that the Clinton "anonymous" contributions were only anonymous to the authorities, not to the criminal recipients.

There is no way for big money to be anonymous to the candidate. They are always told when the big checks are coming, from who, and when they arrive and clear.

The donations would NOT go to the candidate, but to a clearing house in the candidate's name. Maybe to the remnants of the IRS after the tax code is simplified and most of the staff fired.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you don't believe that these financial abuses can be stopped? The Corzines of the world being hanged in the public square would be a good start, no?
