Not too sure if this should be here or over in Non-Detroit, but below is a link to a site that tracks who gives $ to whom.

If you use the search function, you can search by zip, city or name.

One interesting bit of info: Derrick Miller gave $1,000 to Mitt Romney ... Bernard Kilpatrick tossed cash in John Edwards' lap and Sharon McFail did the same to Hillary.

Little Blue and Red dots appear on the map and you can fly over the USA and see where the colors are concentrated.

Palmer Woods has donated a ton to Barak whereas Indian Village is more Hillary Country.

On the downside, it actually gives the full-name, address, amt and where the contributors work. Kinda Big-Brothery but interesting to those who like being nosey.

Why not track those planning to move their businesses to Detroit? [Hint: They don't support the candidates the DY radiclibs want.]

Thanks Gnome! That map's well worth bookmarking.
