The answer to that is already in. Nancy Pelosi told Weinstein to never threaten her again.
It's an idle threat anyway. Obama has raised enough money in small contributions over the internet to buy Harvey Weinstein and ship him off-shore.
But if you want types like this running things behind the curtains, elect Hillary or McCain. Fat cat donors, lobbyists and big bundlers give both of them the build of their money. Either one will give you business as usual, the best leadership money can buy.
The average amount for all donations to Obama is $109. Compare that to the other two candidates. If you hate Obama and don't want to vote for him, that's certainly your decision to make. But trying to claim that his fund raising is just like McCain's or Clinton's is a bald face lie.

Most excellently said ET.
Your clarity indicates that you come from a very different area of outer space than planet Obfuscation, the putative birthplace of aniokly.
Obama doesn't take money from lobbyists just former lobbyists.
