In most areas of the country the answer is not much of one. The money itself is a form of speech, but the source of the money also makes a statement.

No but What about At&T who want to control a certain frequency spectrum? Or McDonalds who wants to fatten you up to use in their new people burger? Or Walmart who doesnt want to see the federal minium wage increased?

I mean who hates walmart? People that don't live near one?

All i'm saying is that politicians just follow the money

Sounds like a problem with politicians, not money.
