Arnold Quiz

Does this quote:
Quote:
Anyone that is putting a wedge between a legislator or a politician, that is supposed to make decisions on behalf of the people, and the people is a special interest. If it is a union or if it is a drug company, it makes no difference. All of them are special interests, because they‘re looking out for themselves.
mean

a. The fact that Arnold raises money from drug companies means he is as beholden to special interests as those he has demonized since the beginning of the recall campaign.

b. Arnold's legislate-by-initiative governing style means that he is always a man of "the people", and thus his donors are by definition not special interests.

c. Arnold's sentence structure could use some work.

Extra Credit:
If your answer is b., please explain how Arnold's donors are not putting a wedge between the legislators and the job they have been sent to Sacramento to do on behalf of "the people".

[Dunno if Arnold is still a topic around here. A quick flip through the last few posts (libertarian quiz, check...Iraq, check...Tom DeLay unethical, check) indicated that it might be.]
