LA Times:
Once-Critical Governor to Launch Fundraising Tour
Some of the donors have a stake in legislation Schwarzenegger will soon sign or veto.

By Dan Morain, Times Staff Writer


SACRAMENTO — Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is embarking on a whirlwind, 17-event fundraising tour from here to Boston, tapping donors who have a stake in bills soon to arrive at his desk for signature or veto.

The events come at the end of the legislative session, when past governors and most legislators traditionally have raised money. But Schwarzenegger, who has raised $22 million so far this year, has criticized the practice.

The fundraisers offer contributors a chance to sit with Schwarzenegger at a Rolling Stones concert Sunday at Fenway Park in Boston, and to watch a pennant-race baseball game between the Angels and Oakland A's in Anaheim later this month.

In the quest for cash to finance his campaign for the special election he called, the governor plans to appear Friday at a Lake Tahoe fundraiser hosted by, among others, philanthropist and former junk bond king Michael Milken. From there, he is set to jet to New Jersey for a Saturday barbecue to boost his fortunes and those of New Jersey Republican gubernatorial candidate Doug Forrester.

Schwarzenegger will be collecting campaign money from individuals and entities that have major Capitol lobby operations and are embroiled in legislative battles....

1. Arnold is an umpopular dangerous boob who will tear a page out

of Bush's playbook to get elected, hook or by crook. Wish someone would just widely distribute that ARNOLD PARTY IN RIO - that straight to video - tape that he made in the early 90's. If you don't know it, he is totally disgusting in it, making embarassing sexually explicit jokes, dancing suggestively, fondling women..and just being a total ass.

6. I thought he couldn't be bought

He was going to give guhvamint bahck to da peepul.

Another money-grubbing politician, willing to sell out the constituency for another infusion of precious, precious money.

Still happy with your choice, California? At least you don't have that dreary Gray Davis trying to figure out whether the energy companies were raping you anymore.
