CBS 5: Schwarzenegger Raises Record Campaign Money

CBS 5: Schwarzenegger Raises Record Campaign Money:

"Records show Schwarzenegger's biggest contributors include Orange County high-techie Henry Nicholas, mortgage company Ameriquest, the state Republican Party, and sports-team owner Alex Spanos. As for how the money was spent: almost $2 million went to campaign consultants; over $800,000 went for Schwarzenegger's extensive travel; $91,000 paid for the Hyatt Hotel, where Schwarzenegger lives in Sacramento; and $300,000 went to libel lawyers defending him from those groping charges made during the campaign. So it's a lot of money from some groups that some would consider special interests.

'Governor Schwarzenegger has defined special interests to mean anybody that hasn't contributed to him,' said Doug Heller from a website a group called ArnoldWatch.org. 'That's it. That's his rule.'"
