Is that bad or good?
The main factor is to observe the main corporations behind each campaign.. being republican or democratic

health care,weapons/war industry,dairy/meat/grain(seeds) industry,banks/oil. Do you really believe that donations are from people and not by corporations?.

Mithus makes a valid point. Assuming that Derid is correct in his assertion that Obama spends considerably more than anyone else, doesn't it stand to reason that he would be more beholden to his corporate minders than anyone else and give the lie to the assertions that all conservative movements are astroturf while making the claim that all liberal movements are grassroots?

From outsider viewpoint, to me republicans are linked to weapons/war industry, bankers and wall street lobby, oil industry, automobily industry, health care corporations

but for which coporations democractics can be linked?

All of the above. Dems are *more* linked to Auto and Health and Wall Street, GOP are *more* linked to Military, Banking and Oil. But both parties are closely intertwined with all 6 of the above examples and examples can readily be found for both parties being involved with favors, lobbying and money from any sector mentioned here.

Had this site for awhile and was looking foward to one day being able to use it. It is a break down of the top 140 all time largest contributers, and to which party they kicked money to. If a bussiness kicked more than 60% of its funds in one direction, then it is considered leaning that way, dem or rep.

And to answer your question, they are linked also, both parties are bought and paid for. With the exception of auto and oil indy, both parties recive close to the same amount of money( with in 20%).

Interesting that you have to get all the way down to #19 before you find one that leaned republican, but astounding how many of the top 25 are nearly 100% democrat.

While I agree that alot are blue, there is still a large number that kicks money to both sides. Its just good bussiness to play both sides of the field, so whomever is elected, they are paid for.

That's the thing with Democrats, they are the better politicians because you think that.

Democrats are better at spreading lies the are Republicans.
