That doesn't prove what you said. Stop pretending the SCOTUS is the only legal route. Less than stupid people know better.
The SCOTUS has the ultimate authority to decide if a law is Constitutional or not. In Citizens United it invalidated a law which, among other things, made Super Pacs impossible.

There is no work around the SCOTUS in this matter; they'd have to be unwilling to overrule Citizens United. Given the Court's present make up, that wouldn't happen.

In fact I didn't you could quote me. The SCOTUS ruled that the SUPER PACS are in accordance with the constitution.
I know. Because they ruled corporations are people. I already pointed that out. Keep up.

I know, but it is unconstitutional.
That decision should be repealed. It was a way for wealthy people to have more influence on elections than poor people. Do you think torture is not cruel and unusual punishment too? The SCOTUS can be and has been wrong.
