Joe Conason has more on Arnold's adviser, Don Sipple, including Sipple's financial ties to Chuck Quackenbush, the disgraced former California Insurance Commissioner. More non-whore journalists need to pummel Arnold on the company he keeps.
Joe's article raises an interesting question: Where do voters find out who's funding the recall candidates and their campaigns? I can't find anything on the California Secretary of State's site addressing campaign finance disclosures. Does the short election period preclude effective disclosure of the special interests who are bankrolling the candidates?
p.s. -- You may want to purchase a copy of Joe Conason's Big Lies at your local bookseller or online (through someone such as Jim Capozzola or Atrios). I intend to buy Joe's book as soon as possible, based solely on the quality of Conason's (and Gene Lyons') The Hunting of The President.
