43% of Obama's donations come from donors who give more than $2300.
Only 26% comes from those who donate less than $200. So his support
comes mainly from large contributors (Hillary does fare worse, with
12% coming from < $200 donors, and 63% from > $2300 donors).
And lest we be swayed by the issue of small donations, note that the
leaders on that front are Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul (and also
Kucinich and Gravel, but their totals aren't much), with McCain coming
in a close 22% to Obama's 26%.
