    I'm surprised how many split their donations almost 50-50 between Democrats and Republicans.

    Talk about hedging bets.

    I find it ironic that the public think it is the Republicans that are pro business, however it is the Democrats that have been in bed with big business for years.

    That list is very telling. The top 18 "donors" give heavily to the Democrat party. It is nice to see that the party is bought and paid for....however, the Republicans are no better.

    Union donations to the Dems is obvious! I totally agree with the SC decision that allows corporations to donate to campaigns, at least it will allow Republicans the opportunity to catch up with union donations!

    That decision itself has set off a firestorm from Dems and unions! It you're against this decision from the SC, then advocate for unions to stop their spending towards Dems campaigns as well!
