While AIG-Financial Group executivesโ€™ fundraising efforts for Sen. Chris Dodd are getting attention, other recipients shouldnโ€™t be left off the hook, particularly because the big picture so clearly refutes the idea that Republicans are in the pocket of big business.

Employees of AIG Financial Products group โ€” the division at the heart of the companyโ€™s troubles โ€” have donated $385,452 for all cycles, according to Open Secrets. Of that total, $323,246 went to Democrats, $60,706 went to Republicans โ€” an 84 percent to 16 percent split.
