Athletes and their political contributions

I was surprised by the listings on newsMeat about the political donations made by athletes and people in the sports world. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that so many people with lots of money give their money to Republicans, but some of the choices surprised me a little. Peyton Manning supports that guy Corker in Tennessee, okay, but golfer Paul Azinger gave $4200 to the Katherine Harris for Senate campaign in Florida? That doesn't qualify as good judgement in my book.

It's an interesting website which tracks all contributions greater than $200 since 1977.
