Walter is correct, of course, that trial lawyers are, in massive numbers, supporting Democratic candidates. Many are supporting with their wallets, too. But it is worth pointing out that Republicans have more than their share of “anchor tenants.”

Years of Bush/Rove attacking the lawyers. I was watching a speech Reagan gave to the Federalist society from 88. Not a word about trot reform. Back then there were a lot of lawyers voting for and supporting Republicans. The Republicans raise a lot of Insurance and Corporate d money with their present tactics. They don’t read the whole Constitution and often forget the consumer. Even the cost tax “debate” is just another sign of the hypocrisy.
