Report: Rove-linked group funded by Wall Streeters - 2010 Elections News | Midterm Elections: Senators, Governors - Salon.com

A substantial portion of Crossroads GPS’ money came from a small circle of extremely wealthy Wall Street hedge fund and private equity moguls, according to GOP fundraising sources who spoke with NBC News on condition of anonymity. These donors have been bitterly opposed to a proposal by congressional Democrats — and endorsed by the Obama administration — to increase the tax rates on compensation that hedge funds pay their partners, the sources said.

Democrats spent more on campaigns nationwide than Republicans, including third-party PAC spending... Have any of the democrats' big bucks been linked to wall street or hedge funds?
