The money thing could be a mixed blessing. Too easy for Obama to point to corporate America and Wall St. trying to buy the election.

Romney has become a tool of the richest of the richest in this country who have a very real agenda for wanting him elected - and it has nothing to do with what is best for 98% of the citizens of this country.

Please Obama was no slouch when it came to raising money from corporate America. Neither of them has clean hands in this area.

Do you think the billionaires wanted ObamaCare, or Wall Street reform?

When I think back to the last election, we all knew that Obama was promising health reform and he was elected with us knowing that. Also, Wall St. wasn't exactly flavor of the month at the time. But Wall St. still supported Obama last time around and the reform they got is pretty watered down. As to Obamacare, it ain't exactly revolutionary and certain special interests have done quite well out of it.

They probably supported Obama last time because they felt that McCain was a maverick and couldn't be trusted. But Romney is one of them which probably explains why he is getting the money this time around.
