Where's the blue ink?
http://ourfuture.org/blog-entry/2010093928/crony-capitalism-wall-streets-favorite-politicians
"A full 90 members of Congress who voted to bailout Wall Street in 2008 failed to support financial reform reining in the banks that drove our economy off a cliff. But when you examine campaign contribution data, it's really no surprise that these particular lawmakers voted to mortgage our economic future to Big Finance: This election cycle, they've raked in over $48.8 million from the financial establishment. Over the course of their Congressional careers, the figure swells to a massive $176.9 million."
Not that too many voters will care to make the distinction but a key metric ought to be that if the Sen/Rep voted for "bailouts", did they then oppose reform?
