The U.S. Supreme Court's Citizens United v. FEC decision opened the floodgates of campaign spending in 2010 .
Watchdogs say Citizens United is perhaps the most consequential catalyst of so-called "dark money" in the history of elections, watchdogs say.
The court's 5 -4 decision continues to divide Democrats and Republicans over key questions about wealth.
The limits of what may be allowed under campaign finance law are being put to the test.
