Political Irony

I’m a great believer in following the money, so I often wonder where Mitt Romney gets most of his campaign money? It doesn’t seem to be from the Republican base, unless if you consider Wall Street to be the (real) Republican base.

Romney has raised millions from Wall Street. In fact, Romney has received more campaign money from the financial sector than all other presidential candidates combined (yes, that includes Barack Obama).

Of course, Wall Street will be getting their money’s worth. Romney has promised to repeal the Wall Street reform bill passed in 2010, designed to prevent another financial crisis.
