Oh, and she works for an oil company.  And, the top executives made the same donations.  On the same day.  Something doesn't add up.  Luckily, TPM is on the case. http://www.totalwhitehouse.com/?p=13 A recent poll by Rasmussen states that 49% of people believe that the press will favor Obama in this election cycle.
