Money Revealed

How much are some candidates worth?

Cleveland.com has info from Republican Rob Portman's financial statement:

...Portman's form was about 15 pages and detailed his lucrative salary as a lawyer at Cleveland-based law firm Squire, Sanders & Dempsey, where he earned $800,000 in 2008, and fees from speaking engagements....

...Portman reported having dozens of investments, including 22 worth between $100,001 and $250,000 and one worth between $500,001 and $1 million. He also has real estate holdings, including a rental property in Sea Is land, Ga., worth more than $1 million....

Portman is just a regular guy. Obviously, Portman is part of the elite Republican wing.
