I've always be in favor of full disclosure of political contributions. It seems to me a much better method of campaign finance reform than arbitrary limits on contributions. If we all know that billionaire X is pumping all kinds of money into candidate Y's campaign, then we can each decide whether we think that's important or not.
Somehow, it never occurred to me that the contributions of ordinary citizens would be compiled and the information would be used to threaten them. I guess I was naive about machine politics. At any rate, something needs to be done about this.
