| 46. Loopholes. Obama raised most of his '08 money from corporations. Name on checks irrelevant. |

Edited on Fri Jan-21-11 05:38 PM by trayNTP
Remember hearing in 2009 from a guest on the Thom Hartmann show that 6/7th of Obama's money came from corporations.
Of course, Obama raised more corporate money than anyone else in history. He was also the #1 recipient of Wall Street money in 2008.
No, I don't expect their approach to fundraising to change. They will continue getting most of their money from filth like Goldman Sachs while using the media to purport the myth that it's coming from "small donors," from "people like you," just like they did in 2008.
