The New York Times has published a separate list looking at contributions from "directors, officers, and lobbyists for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac" for the 2008 campaign cycle. That list — using figures from the Federal Election Commission — shows McCain receiving $169,000, while Obama received only $16,000.

2. good catch. Just heard McClueless on CNN complaining about Obama lobbiest $

He's claiming Obama's in the pocket of the financial industry. :wtf:

3. My first thought was that this would be excellent material for an ad.

But then I realized that if Obama drops this on McCain during the first debate, McCain's head will explode on national television.
