There are lots of rich people that have spent fortunes in elections - Bloomberg, Whitman, Perot, the Kennedys, etc... Power is a bigger motivator than money to lots of people, especially, when you already have tons of money.

Re: Team Obama needs $1 BILLION for 2012 Campaign …..Think of it....he nearly singlehandedly has trashed our economy, our jobs, our very lives, and yet has the gall to suggest that he needs this much money to win an election so the taxpayers can continue supporting him and his minions in the style to which they have become accustomed.....
