Kinda Like That "Parallel Public Financing System"

The NY Times on the "Millionaires' Amendment" case:
On Tuesday the Supreme Court will hear a legal challenge to the so-called millionaires’ amendment. It should uphold Congress’s modest effort to help candidates who rely on outside contributions to get their messages out to the voters.
In other words, most candidates for public office - since "candidates who rely on outside contributions to get their messages out to the voters" is almost all of them. Would that the Court, and the Times (and Senators McCain and Obama, for that matter) would devote more energy to freeing such candidates to get their messages to the voters, and let the voters decide.
