A Comparison: Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae Donations

Here is a sample of lawmakers who have received donations from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac:

#2 overall, Sen. Barack Obama, $126,349
#3 overall, Sen. John Kerry $111,000
#12 overall, Sen. Hillary Clinton, $76,050
#18 overall, Rep. Nancy Pelosi, $56,250
#62 overall, Sen. John McCain, $21,550
#158 overall, Rep. Allen Boyd, $6,000
#202 overall, Rep. Ron Paul, $3,500

Although there are lawmakers listed from both major parties, it is quite surprising to see Sen. Obama at #2 overall. Is this his idea of change?
