1. Have they had a change of heart and now want to work for
truth, justice and the working man?

They have taken measure of our candidates and are supporting those they think will come closest to furthering their agenda?

Or they are backing vulnerable candidates they think will help get the Republican nominee into office.

3. They line up because they know they can count on Clinton or Obama to not change the status quo.

The Democratic victory in last November's congressional elections may have also sparked greater interest in the party. ``Money tends to follow people who have power,'' Wertheimer says.


And to add to that, it follows people who they can depend upon to keep help corporations make excessive profits and expand their domination of the world.
