McCain Trails Both Dems In Money From Normally GOP-Friendly Industries

In a sign that he has a lot of ground to make up in the money race, John McCain still lags way behind both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton in donations from employees of industries where Republican usually have an advantage.

There are a few obvious reasons for this: McCain's fundraising operation as a whole was pretty lackluster throughout the primary season, the two Democrats both built large fundraising machines to tap into both small and large donors, and even top executives have shifted more of their donations to the Democrats in anticipation of a Dem victory.

This is a non-story. Big business always supports mainstream Republican candidates over insanely wacko radical fringe Republicans. Both Obama and Clinton are better Republicans than Senator Wackadoo.
