There’s a lot of misinformation about how Sen. Clinton is rolling in cash from big pharma, HMOs, and the insurance industry.

Notably, that list includes 17 Republicans, 7 Democrats, and Lieberman.
Tops? Ex-CT Rep Nancy Johnson (R), one of the prime movers of the Part D program with $790k. And now in retirement.
