Unions fund candidates who support their interests? Of course they do. Voters vote for candidates who support their interests. It's how the system works.
Not everybody in a union supports the candidate that gets the money? Let them vote on it. If the losers don't like it, then they obviously have some sort of problem with this whole "democracy" business in the first place.
Unions act as interest lobbies? That's the whole point of unions: to represent workers to the employers and government.
They you don't have any arguments for not allowing super PACS to donate to whoever they want to as well or corporate committees. Unions are no different from those ridiculous super PAC that ultra rich businessmen form.
