www.opensecrets.org - - You can search people's names to see who they donated to and how much in the campaign. I searched George Clooney and Oprah Winfrey and they both gave 2,300 each to Obama.

You are welcome and encouraged to add good news websites and websites in general that deal with politics.

intrade is awesome. i found out about it a few years ago. you can bet on anything with that site

realclearpolitics is great too, it's just a collection of op eds and other pieces from major and not so major publications. you get everything from the right, middle, left and everything on the far of either side.

politico.com is the new kid on the block that is starting to be one of the best on the net

drudgereport.com is great too. he has everything and anything. not just politics but also news from all around the world. plus he usually gets tips about articles days before they are released to the general public. it's too bad he stopped doing his radio show.
