ABC News’ Devin Dwyer (@devindwyer) reports: None of the 2012 Republican presidential candidates will reveal a full list of their top campaign fundraisers, breaking from a precedent of transparency set by President George W. Bush and continued by 2008 GOP candidate John McCain and President Barack Obama.

In statements to ABC News, spokesmen for each campaign confirmed they would keep the names of their so-called “bundlers” secret -- or, in the case of Ron Paul, admitted “we don’t really have any.”

Why would they disclose who's raising money for them? Huntsman's top fundraiser is , Lynn Forester de Rothschild a Democrat who raised money for Hilary Clinton in 2008:

They probably have a ring of money changers that they share.

1. donated your money through your spouse
2. donate your money through a relative
3. List yourself as retired to hide your corporate affiliations.
