"those kinds of people"? Do you mean rich people? Are you saying that the Liberal party doesn't attract rich people? LOL
Sure there are people of influence in the Conservative party... just like there is in every party. But, its not because they are rich and they are throwing a lot of $$$ in the Conservative pot.
In the last year the Conservative party received approximately 175,000 donations and the average donation was $115.
