Do you think that there is so much Koch etc. money floating around

[applegrove]

GOP circles that people who sign up to be teabaggers or libertarians or GOPers, as a career, get better remuneration than those who work as liberals? I'd be interested to see a study on how much gop pundits and politicians, down to the local level, get as salary and bonuses vs. liberal/reality based politicos. I would guess it pays to be a libertarian and that you can find funding for all your plans and ideas. Does anyone else feel this? That the GOP has imposed actual market forces to the political class of the USA. Then the laws of supply and demand take over.....and people gravitate towards the $$$$.
