    Huge generalization. Anyway, don't break your arm patting yourself on the back - both parties accept donations.

    Still, I think Dems are more concerned about making sure corporations are properly regulated

    Libs are not equal to Democrats. If liberals could stop corporate campaign contributions they would, but they can't, so they work with what they got. Democrats is just the only major party that occasionally listens to what liberals want, as opposed to Republicans who never care what non-corporate entities or non-rich people want (and who get just as many corporate contributions if not more btw).

    Also, I should point out that all attempts so far to reform the campaign contribution system were made by Democrats and not Republicans. Get back to me when Republicans start caring about corporate campaign contributions.

    Who are you talking about? The corporate Dem's, who are in no way "liberal?"

    Besides, I think you are confusing concern with allowing big corporations to run the show in the United States over the people, with being "anti-corporate." Obviously, this group is not very well represented in our government today... But as you can surely see, it's not really the same thing as what you imply... although I have a feeling you already know that, and just decided to troll that question out there anyhow.

    Meh, don't think too hard about it. While I consider myself anything but a liberal, there's hypocrisy on both sides.
