On an aggregate level, do Liberals collectively have more disposable income than Conservartives?

I've heard somewhere that the majority of the super-rich are Liberals. Ofcourse so are the majority of the super-poor are also Liberals, but do the two collectively have more money than Conservatives , even though they are the ones who rail against income distribution

1. NO.
2. On an aggregate level, this question sucks.
3. the real answer is that it's probably about the same. but look for pundits from either side to spin it their way. spin away guys...
4. Obama collected far more in donations than McCain, so that should be some indication.
5. All I can say is that the economy does better when the Democrats are in the white house.
6. The super rich don't really seem to be bound by a party line. Gates or Buffett may have been republican one election and democrat the next. Since people seem to change parties so much though, i don't see how anyone could have up to date stats on that.
7. I believe libs and democrats have more wealth than other persuasions, and yet conservatives and republicans lead the pack when it comes to charities.
8. liberals have more total financial assets but disposable income is another matter as most disposable income comes from wages.
9. This could explain where all of that stimulus money went to ! The super-rich got their share, and the super poor got theirs, and to hell with the middle income conservatives. Besides, if conservatives got it, where would the money come from for ACORN ? LOL !!
10. This is true, it's Liberal money that Liberal policies are giving away
