Don't expect to hear it on CNN. The study was conducted by Dwight L. Morris and Associates, a non partisan research company that is commonly cited by all kinds of media, even the rabidly rightwing Fox News and World Net Daily.
In an analysis entitled, Dems Don't Know Jack, the American Prospect reports, hey dummies, "it’s a Republican scandal."
The study found:
in total, the donations of Abramoff's tribal clients to Democrats dropped by nine percent after they hired him, while their donations to Republicans more than doubled, increasing by 135 percent after they signed him up;
five out of seven of Abramoff's tribal clients vastly favored Republican candidates over Democratic ones;
four of the seven began giving substantially more to Republicans than Democrats after he took them on;
Abramoff's clients gave well over twice as much to Republicans than Democrats, while tribes not affiliated with Abramoff gave well over twice as much to Democrats than the GOP -- exactly the reverse pattern.
Hat tip to Scott Shield.
