(re Shriver)

Oh, THAT. It's a sound point. It is. BUT, I think it's hugely mitigating that the Shriver contribution was:

- made in a Democratic primary race, NOT in a general election against a Republican; and
- made to a close family member of Mrs. Schwarzenegger, almost certainly (and ONLY) as a favor to her.

Not excusing it, and I don't like it, but hey -- look at all the Kennedys he HASN'T given to, not even "as a favor to her."
