In reply to the discussion: Hope this isn't going to be a trend: Obama losing financial backing of big S.F. donor [View all]SidDithers

Really? There's no Republican who would be worse for the environment than Obama?
Ron Fucking Paul's environmental positions:
As President, Ron Paul will lead the fight to:
* Remove restrictions on drilling, so companies can tap into the vast amount of oil we have here at home.
* Repeal the federal tax on gasoline. Eliminating the federal gas tax would result in an 18 cents savings per gallon for American consumers.
* Lift government roadblocks to the use of coal and nuclear power.
* Eliminate the ineffective EPA. Polluters should answer directly to property owners in court for the damages they create not to Washington.
* Make tax credits available for the purchase and production of alternative fuel technologies.

The bigger picture is if you support Obama taking private money, you have to deal with the process.

That was my guess. She didn't give to him in 2008. She's a Hillary supporter who's mad....

Your headline contains a factual error: since he never had her financial backing he can not lose it.
