I think you can take the sectoral thing too far, though. The Dems are strong in the high-tech and entertainment industries in California and the Republicans are favoured by Texas oil interests, but the corporations in general contribute to both parties, often in proportion to which party appears poised to take power. Wall Street went with Obama last time, but has now shifted back to the Republicans, more because it has its finger to the wind and less because, as it pretends, the administration has not been nice to the financial industry.
