This guy is smarter than Palin? Or Obama? Or McCain?

[clocker]

The figures relevant to my point are contained herein, where you can see that the contributions to Clinton and Obama are roughly 5 times the contribution to McCain.

No bitching about provenance, either - these figures are from CNNMoney.com:

What I see is that Obama got @2 times what McCain did from those sources.
Nowhere near 35 million, BTW.

Also of interest was the observation that Wall St.- traditionally a Repub leaning sector- only switched sides after 2006, so basically, they're just sucking up to the power in Congress, not undergoing some great ideological shift themselves.

At the bottom of the article it notes that oil and tobacco still favors the Republican party..."Drill, Baby, Drill"* and "Puff, Baby, Puff".



*Certainly one of the most moronic rallying points ever.
Americans in general have absolutely no clue about energy policy and were particularly ill-served by McCain this election cycle.
McCain's belittling of the suggestion to properly inflate tires- which would cost nothing and have an immediate effect- in favor of drilling for oil- which would take decades to implement and have very little overall impact on our oil imports, just shows how incredibly short-sighted he really is.

Mccain should go to a nursing home already or one of his seven houses that he forgot he had lol.
By the way, mccain doesn't want regulations for wall st, he just wants to give the money away, isn't that socialism?
This is the same guy that made up a Joe the plumber story, he is so lame, so out of touch with reality, gosh he is old.
Joe the plumber is not even a real plumber, only makes 40 k a year, insanity runs rampant in mccains life.

I am informed there is a consistent bipartisan reaction to your postage; polls reveal that upwards of 90% of conservatives think you are wrong, and no longer wish to hear from you, while 90% of liberals agree with you wholeheartedly but hope you won't rub off on them.

Interesting, huh?

Now that's just wrong.

I am positive no other person on this Earth agrees with you, which is not quite the same thing as sharing your opinion.
