Vintners prefer Obama, Brewers back McCain
Ever wonder who is funding whom? Seems wineries and vintners are backing Obama this time around. But most of the distributors for both wine and beer are funding McCain.
I checked www.OpenSecrets.org to find that most of the wineries and most of the bigger winemakers - Constellation Brands, Diageo, Gallo - were indeed backing more Democrats this year than Republicans. While overall, the brewers are donating just a smidge more to the Dems (for the first time since the 1994 election), the widget above will show you the top contributors from the industry.
Now what are you going to be drinking between now and Election Day?
