Davenport Thomas Loeffler This is hardly even a slap on the wrist. The remaining 115 lobbyists make millions working for special interests in Washington. They represent all kinds of industries like health insurance companies, Big Pharma, defense contractors, and Telecom. They represent foreign regimes like Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and Burma. And they hold positions at the highest levels of the McCain campaign. John McCain says he represents the American people, but the men and women Senator McCain has chosen to run his campaign have worked for years for special interests.

Why count? Obama has lobbyists too... so more than... less than...who cares. Obama is no boy scout either. We need Hillary. Hillary has not claimed to be a girl scout and then had the public learn she's a mortal, like the rest of US. Hillary is down to earth and will work hard for peace and to be a great President.

because he doesn't have all the Socialist Hollywood movie stars and black racist sports stars donating money to his campaign like someone I know.

You are the best pal. I was just about to pose the same question. Keep up the good work.
5 :
Because he is a career politician. These are the people he knows and trusts. What is so appalling is that people have been talking about it, but he didn't hear them, or didn't want to hear.

John McCain has NEVER been very good about raising money. It's never been his "style" to walk up to a potential Contributor, shake his hand, tell a joke, and ask for a generous Campaign Contribution... SO, he tends to let OTHERS do the $$$ "squeezing" FOR Him- so that HE can keep his hands "Clean" from THAT Side of Politics... The PROBLEM with THAT is, it leaves him exposed to being "Blindsided" by "Special Interests" He knows NOTHING about- until it's too late... :(

He released another one today. Email this list to all Network and Cable News outlets so they can blast him and ask why he is slow to eliminate conflict of interest from his campaign.
