While I agree that it is free speech and if I want to I should be allowed to pay to air a commercial supporting a candidate I like or attacking a candidate I don't like I fear that often these non-profit groups that end up raising and spending a lot of 'soft money' are organized by people from the major parties so they basically just end up being an extension of on candidates campaign. If these groups want to raise and spend money, find, but there should be rules in place that they have no contact or influence from any candidate and/or their party/campaign.
