Lieberman-Warner Climate Bill Voted Down by Big Oil
Obama has his work cut out for him on the lobbying front.

A little data-crunching by the folks at Oil Change International finds that Senators who voted against the Lieberman- Warner Climate Security Act have received on average 3 times more oil money than those who voted for the Bill.
Avg Oil/Gas Money Per Vote

Yea (48) $54,948
Nay (36) $159,288

Check out Oil Change International's Follow the Money tool - a great resource for tracking the oil lobby's influence over elected representatives.
