In January, a narrow Republican 5-4 majority of the Supreme Court ruled Corporations have the right to spend unlimited amounts of money to elect or defeat candidates.
That includes the nation's largest Corporations like ExxonMobil, which made $45 billion in profits in 2008 and could easily spend $5 billion to defeat every Democrat in the U.S.
By the way, two of the four justices that were in the minority on this opinion were appointed by Republicans.
