Campaign Finance - Open Secrets
As a preview of next week and for those of you who love dollar signs, check out this site. It is called Open Secrets and provides a plethora of data on just how much money is raised for a campaign, where it came from and who was it given to. See if you can find out how much money Mr. Decker/Mr. Thompson donated in 2008 to political candidates and which candidates did we give to? Bring some brilliance with you to class next Wednesday to share with your peers. Yes you must as I will be asking you for it!!!
Mr. Thompson

For some reason this was really hard for me, but I can see that Obama spent A LOT last election, about twice as much as the republican canidate. I can't say that this is the reason he won, but the book did say that it has a REALLY big influence...
I suppose this is just stating the obvious but no one else really posted anything
