Telecom money keeps flowin' to Congress
When they're not paying for astroturf, the telcos are opening their funding wallets to Congress. Not a surprise, and hard to blame them from playing the hand they have been dealt. Still, it's good to read stories like this one by the National Journal's David Hatch that give you a clear idea how much it takes to get your message heard on the Hill.
You've got to love the cash rolling in to Ted Stevens' coffers, even though he's not up for re-election for a couple more years. Never hurts to start saving early!
