Report: McCain Received $881,450 From Big Oil Since He Announced Support For Offshore Drilling»
Thinkprogress:
Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has made his complete reversal on offshore drilling a centerpiece of his presidential campaign, insisting that expanding offshore drilling into protected areas would lead to more oil supply on the market “within a matter of months” — regardless of the Energy Information Agency’s projection that oil would not reach the market for nearly a decade and “would not have a significant impact” on oil prices.
The report notes that these enormous contributions represent a seven-fold increase in donations, compared to McCain’s 2000 campaign
