Will Obama change his SOTU speech to address the SCOTUS ruling?

I think he will.

His statement following today's ruling shows that this issue is important to him. Being a constitutional lawyer, and all.


I know the typical cast of characters will chime into this OP with "I'll believe it when I see it" stuff....


But I think Obama "gets it" with respect to this ruling.

1. It potentially scrubs money from politician piggy banks
Why should the corporations line the pockets of corrupt politicians when they can just invest in direct political advertising?

Yeah, the politicians will probably have a LOT to say about this

2. He gets it. Question is, will he do anything about it before the heat death of the universe? n/t
