If its spin to note that the Ds only received 22% of oil/gas industry political contributions last year, I accept that.
IMO, industry contributions to Ds increasing from 18% to 22% does not change the scenario in any meaningful manner or to any significant degree.
The spin is to suggest that the oil/gas lobby has as much influence now as it did during the Bush/Republican majority years...which is how I interpreted Merc's "fantasy because of lobbyists" remark.
