According to an article in today's edition of Capitol Hill newspaper The Hill (h/t HuffPo), fewer than half of Senate Republicans (21 + Lieberman, out of 49 + Lieberman) have contributed to John McCain's Presidential campaign, and -- wait for it -- fewer than twenty percent of House Republicans. Some choice excerpts, emphasis mine:
McCain, Arizona's senior senator, has had a far warmer reception in the upper chamber. At least 22 Senate colleagues have contributed to McCain's campaign, including Sen. Joe Lieberman (Conn.), an Independent who attends Democratic caucus meetings.
Only 21 House Republicans have given to McCain from their personal campaign accounts since he became the presumptive GOP nominee four and a half months ago, according to an analysis of House fundraising reports made public Wednesday
...
So while nearly half the Senate GOP conference has given to McCain, less than 20 percent of House Republicans have pitched in.
Several of the highest-ranking Republicans in the House have yet to give to McCain. Republican Whip Roy Blunt (Mo.) and Republican Conference Chairman Adam Putnam (Fla.) have not given anything, according to the most recent fundraising reports.
...
The lack of financial gifts raises questions about McCain's relationship with members of the lower chamber. McCain has clashed throughout his career with House Republicans on issues ranging from immigration to campaign finance reform to drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. A survey by The Hill in June found more than a dozen House Republicans who refused to endorse McCain, even though he will be the party's standard-bearer this fall.
...
Aides to McCain's campaign did not respond to a request for comment.
And my personal favorite,
Some lawmakers reported small contributions. Rep. Mike Castle (R-Del.), for example, gave McCain $96 worth of in-kind secretarial services.
