People run for office to pursue an ideological agenda that they believe in, not with the goal of getting as much lobbyists money as they can.
Money (and power) is an enabler.
Please point me to where money indisputably changed one's ideology.
One party's ideology is to support a government regulatory role as being in the best public interest...the other's is to support a reliance on voluntary industry action as being in the best public interest. The McCain bill makes that pretty clear.
