I find it rather odd that liberals try to tie personal wealth to a political party, but since that looks like what you've done and are so serious about it, let's take a look at politics and personal wealth.

The five wealthiest members of Congress (as of last year):

1. Sen. Herb Kohl (D-Wis) $219,098,029
2. Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif) $168,651,649
3. Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass) $165,741,511
4. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif) $135,862,098
5. Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WVa) $78,150,023

One "fat cat" Republican (in fourth place) and four "fat cat" Democrats. Hmmmm.....
