Obama Raises More From Health Care Industry Than Republican Repeal Proponents | The National Journal notices that for all the fear mongering about how much the health care law will run providers and private insurers out of town, President Obama has raised $1.6 million so far from the health care industry, “which is 76 percent more than Romney’ $920,000 haul and more than triple the $494,000 Perry has raised, according to the Center for Responsive Politics, a campaign money watchdog.” Of course they’re also hoping that the extra campaign cash helps stave off some of the inevitable cuts that will be included in any new deficit reduction package.
