McCain leads all other senators, and all others who ran for president, in contributions from the oil and gas industry, according to the Center for Responsive Politics’ analysis of federal data in the 2007-08 election cycle. McCain collected $724,000 through May, from the oil companies themselves, not the employees.

Under the underlined definition for donors from the above quote, according to the same source, Obama accepted $316,000 from the Oil & Gas Industry. And it was Obama who said, "I don’t take money from oil companies or Washington lobbyists, and I won’t let them block change anymore." On top of that, he's accepted over $162,000 from Lobbyists.
