Actually, the First Amendment trumps the Commerce Clause. The constitutional rule is that Amendments trump the original Constitution and later Amendments trump earlier Amendments.

That's the problem with this decision -- by giving corporations First Amendment rights, it cripples Congress's ability to regulate them.
