First, your figures are not at all accurate. And second, the Labor thugs are opposed to McCain-Feingold because Dems don't have many small contributors like the GOP. As Clinton proved, the Dems rely on corrupt sources, through "soft" money.

these dues-paying working Republicans nevertheless recognize the merit of having their $10-$15 a week support candidates and causes that benefit the working man, even though they vote Republican for other reasons. Are you serious? I don't contribute to the Dems; why would they? Why consider a Republican if you do that? Oh, BTW, contrary to your silly stereotype, most Republicans work. They may not shovel s**t, but they work. I would love to see Big Business held accountable and disclose where the bucks are going, then ask for my permission as a stockholder. So it'as OK for unions to force their members to donate to Democrats, but not OK for corporations to force their shareholders to contribute to Republicans? Doesn't this seem a little one-sided? Why not say both are wrong?
