Open Secrets has the top donors. The Democrats dominate by a wide margin in the top ten. Even Goldman Sachs is firmly in the Democratic party camp for years. Looks like the Unions are flush with cash. Too bad they don’t spend it on their members.

So true. And zero reporting on any of this. Zero as of now. What a war chest the Unions will have by the 2012 election. They will give it all for him.
