I think the cite below is pretty interesting. Categories of occupations where Republicans have the edge, "Homemaker", "Military", "Preacher", "Broker" and "Surgeon". Most others have an edge for Dems, including most other physician/doctor categories, "lawyer", "teacher", "rabbi", "actor" and (some perhaps surprisingly)..."engineer", "manager", "CEO", "CFO", "accountant", "minister", and "clergy". http://fundrace.huffingtonpost.com/ What else can ya'll find? Clearly smaller donations are not tracked, one bias to it. What are the other limitations (skewed by Obama this year, Repubs giving more to party instead of candidates or 503s or whatever)?
Nobody thought this was interesting? I ran a couple others...
