Bundlers are fundraisers whose success at bringing in specific amounts of money is tracked by the candidate they are supporting. Most of the 2008 presidential candidates are using bundlers to raise money for their campaigns.Only a few of the candidates are revealing the names of their bundlers. No candidate has said precisely how much these fundraisers have brought in, because the Federal Election Commission does not require campaigns to disclose their bundlers or the amounts they raise.
A study by the Center for Responsive Politics finds that most of these work in the industries of Law, Finance and Real Estate. Here are some nifty pie charts that show bundlers by industry for each candidate: http://www.capitaleye.org/inside.asp?ID=320
