The wealthy in the United States are far more liberal than the people as a whole. When they complain about the Bush tax cuts, they manage to define rich to mean family incomes as low as $50,000. Even at $200,000 a year a family is not rich. Indeed, a presidential salary of $400,000 barely qualified Clinton.

Yep...and to think of all those millions of dollars going to the Party elite, that could be better used to help the poor and homeless that compassionate liberals remind us of so often:) The very people who wanted to get money out of politics are now the ones working to keep it in. I can only take so much of this hypocrisy.

Yes, but if you break down the rich by how the money was acquired, generally, self-made businessmen tend towards being conservative whereas those who became wealthy without the years of toil lean more towards liberalism.
