Website tracks wealthy donors to Bush re election campaign
Public Citizen launched WhiteHouseFor Sale.org to expose major Bush fundraisers who collect large sums from many individuals. The site labels donors raising 200000 as Pioneers and 100000 as Rangers, profiles 50 Pioneers and 18 Rangers, and lists fund raising totals and events. Bush campaign spokesman Dan Ronayne disagrees with the site.
