This is the way our system works, it's the responsibility of the judicial branch to interpret the constitution, so Russ Feingold needs to take a Valium and follow the recommendations of his colleges if he doesn't like the decision, specifically this....

"and House Democrats have already introduced a resolution to amend the Constitution and reverse the decision."

As to whether it was a good decision, Personally I'd need to read the majority opinion before I could formulate an opinion on it. Bottom line is that if it was unconstitutional it should have been struck and the SCOTUS did the right thing.
