The article examines the fund raising tactics of Republican presidential candidate Senator John McCain. McCain, who is an opponent of special interest influence, has been seeking funds from special interest groups and well-connected corporate executives to support his campaign. His ties in the cable and broadcasting industries, such as Charles Egen of EchoStar Communications, has proved to be beneficial as a primary financial supporter of the campaign.
