What if we had a law that prevented donations from outside your district?
I'm struggling to understand or find a negative consequence.

I assume the argument would be that minorities couldn't afford to run and whitey would run everything

I'm guessing that you don't think Citizens United was a bad decision by the Supreme Court.
But now that PACs can be funded by the big boys and operate anywhere in any race they choose, you want to restrict donations that go to directly to the candidates.

Just spitballing here, but look at some of the bad federal laws we have on the books. They were forced on us by 98 Senators and 434 Representatives we can't vote out of office, but we still have to live with the consequences of their decisions.
Donating to an opponent gives us a chance to get rid of individual mandate supporters or marijuana prohibitionists or SJW culture warriors.

Perhaps because as conservatives we believe in freedom and that people can do what they wish with their money. If the people of Georgia want outside interest telling them how to vote, then that is their choice to make. Handel needs to hammer the point of the outside interest telling them what to do.
