This is revealing. Based upon contribution sources, you can see that the wealthy and corporations are mostly contributing to McCain. Obama's cash mostly comes from the people.

It appears that McCain has been bought by the elite, while Obama is being supported by the people. While I am neither a democrat nor republican, I think the sources for campaign cash speaks volumes about a candidate's motivations and future decision-making.
If you think that either canidate isn't receiving money from the wealthy, your kool aid is spiked.Obama is receiving from the wealthy, at 19% of his donations. McCain has received 46% of his donations from the wealthy, and another 19% in the name of corporations. Obama has already rejected any corporate donations. That is why I included the sources.
