Default What Makes a Political Liberal

Your assertion flies in the face of the fact that the richest member in
Congress are
Democrats. Come to think of it, so is Bill Gates as are most of the tinsel
town
millionaires. ;-)


Maybe there are so many rich D's in congress because the D's have to
self-finance the early stages of their political careers.

Big biz doesn't like to make huge contributions to Democrats. Dumb D's might go
off and vote on some issue based on priniciple! Can't have that now, can we?

I always find it amusing that huge firms like Enron donate at least "something"
to both sides. They may give the R's a few million and the D's maybe 10-percent
of that......but they give the D's enough to get noticed and hopefully call in
some "favors" in case the D candidate upsets the R.
