Quote from Maine Senator Olympia Snowe: "The effects of the decision will be to undermine existing law, flood the airwaves with corporate and union advertisements, and undercut landmark reforms that I and many others fought to secure to put elections back in the hands of the American people.  In short, today's decision was a serious disservice to our country."  January 21, 2010
