Could this be Donor Number 8?

One donation in that category [more than $50K] came from an elected Republican official who insisted on remaining anonymous, even to Mr. McCain, Mr. Davis said.

So what Republican elected official would donate personally to this Institute, yet not wish to be revealed to even McCain himself? Politicians who donate to each others' PACs typically do so for the chits they run up.
