I'm not sure where you get that 75/25% break down but with the money that Enron gave out 25% is still hand over fist.

It's not surprising that they gave more to Republicans since they are a Texas company and more major national politicians from TX are Republicans.

Ted, if taking money from Enron was wrong then taking a few hundred thousand is just as bad as taking a couple of million. Also I don't see what's so special about Enron, if receiving campaign contributions from Enron was wrong then why is it ok to receive them from any other company or from non corporate sources? Because Enron has since gone bankrupt? I don't see the relevance.

Tim, hand over fist? I don't think so. What was the breakdown

The Democrat questionning the accountant right now, on CNBC, took $7,500 from Enron and $2,500 from AA.

Should he recuse?
