Fifty-seven percent think these contributions have a great deal of influence.

en Once you kind of end the money chase, elected officials are far less susceptible to some of the attractions that lobbyists can offer — i.e. travel, food, gifts, campaign contributions.

en When it comes to home computers and Internet access, there are two Americas: there's an America online and one that is falling through the net.
