Nope...favors to be announced. This is from an article by Peter Overby of NPR. But Obama is now the most successful presidential candidate in raising money from the securities and investment industry, according to Sheila Krumholz, executive director of the Center for Responsive Politics. The center, which analyzes campaign finance data, reports that Obama has raised $6.7 million from individual donors and political action committees in the industry, which includes investment banks, private equity firms, hedge funds and venture capitalists.
