| For Arnold's 100th day as Governor, Arnold Watch has assembled the following index of what is being given and gotten in California politics:
Amount of total campaign contributions (in dollars) Schwarzenegger has received since taking office compared to what he said he would take: 11,007,144.25 : 0 Amount of contributions (in dollars) that Schwarzenegger has received on a daily basis during his first 100 days as Governor: 110,000 Ratio at which Schwarzenegger is outpacing recalled Gov. Gray Davis in fundraising: 2:1 Number of separate campaign committees controlled by Schwarzenegger into which the Governor has received contributions in 2004: 5 Amount of money Schwarzenegger has taken from Real-Estate, Developers and Construction companies compared with environmental groups: 3,732,084 : 0 Size (in dollars) of donation to Schwarzenegger from drug giant Pfizer: 100,000 High end asking price for ticket to 100th day fundraiser at residence of pharmaceutical heir Robert Wood Johnson IV: 500,000 Amount of money owed to California from the Pharmaceutical Industry based on a Bush Administration audit versus the amount targeted for collection: 1,300,000,000 : 0 Contributions (in dollars) to Schwarzenegger committees from major workers' compensation insurance companies: 409,858 Number of paragraphs devoted to workers compensation insurance rate regulation in Schwarzenegger's 100+ page proposal for workers compensation reform: 0 Campaign contributions to Schwarzenegger from the top eight industries that have donated since Schwarzenegger announced his candidacy: 13,018,166 |

Davis ain't looking so bad now, no? Hey, fellow Californian voters: Next time you vote for Governor, try voting with your brains rather than with your top-10-favorite-movies-of-all-time list (or, as with Reagan, who has the better hair).
