I think you will find that campaign contributions follow power. That should come as no surprise.

Lets see if it leads to as many Democrats being investigated for corruption as the Republicans when they last controlled Congress:

Below is a rundown of all 21 lawmakers, current and former. Ten of them are no longer in office. Investigations of seven are part of the Abramoff investigation. Seventeen are Republicans, four are Democrats.

In fact, the one change that did occur was the Ethics/Lobbying Reform that the Democrats adopted as soon as they assumed control of Congress. The first such reform in more than 20 years.

It doesnt go nearly far enough, but it does bring more transparency so that it should be easier for you to nab those naughty Demoncrats!

One immediate result.....you're not likely to see another K. Street Project ...the Republican blatant influence peddling scheme that was in place for 10+ years wont fly under the new regulations to prevent the revolving door between Congress and lobbyists.

That was another good thing Obama did. But that was hardly a problem isolated to Republickins.
