Speaking of money in politics, the Sacramento Bee has an informative graphic spread today on the 3 major gubernatorial candidates, their war chest, and the sources of their funding. Interesting how Angelides is not far behind Arnold in the proportion of his funding from entertainment interests. It's also useful in that it illustrates the argument that self-funded candidates are less beholden to special interests (although notice how even millionaires like Schwarzenegger and Angelides are only willing to self-fund at most 20% of their respective campaigns).
