LOBBYI$TS LOVE HILLARY - By GEOFF EARLE

May 25, 2006 -- WASHINGTON - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton took more campaign cash from well-heeled lobbyists this year than any lawmaker except one, an analysis of Washington's influence industry reveals.

Clinton raked in $418,000 from lobbyists this year, including $68,000 from political-action committees that lobbyist firms set up to cut big checks to political campaigns.

The only lawmaker who raised more from lobbyists was Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.), who faces one of the toughest re-election fights in the country.

Jonathan arrived in Geneva yesterday (photo) and was interviewed on Finger Lakes Community Radio this morning (WAUB-Auburn, WSFW-Seneca Falls, WGBA-Geneva, and WCBR-Canandaigua.)

His arrival also was covered by the Finger Lakes Times.

You can listen to Rochester area WXXI radio (91.5 FM and 1370 AM or online) this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon to hear an interview with Jonathan.

ITHACA — When Hillary Rodham Clinton arrived in Ithaca in March to speak at Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine, her entourage rolled up in black SUVs, windows tinted, security tight.

On Wednesday, her opponent in the Democratic Primary Election for U.S. Senate rolled into Ithaca on his bike.

Jonathan Tasini, who is conducting an almost-improbable campaign to unseat Clinton as New York's junior senator, stopped at DeWitt Park as part of his Ride For Peace tour, a 600-mile journey from Manhattan to Buffalo he began to drum up support for his campaign and call attention to the Iraq war.

Turn on your radios Monday morning to hear an interview with Jonathan on WRVO NPR radio stations (central New York -
89.9 Oswego, 90.3 Syracuse, 91.7 Utica, 91.9 Watertown)

You can also listen to Jonathan Tuesday morning on WAMC RoundTable with Susan Arbetter and Alan Chartock at 9:48 AM.

Jonathan's appearance on the Joe Scarborough show on MSNBC is rescheduled for later in the week - we'll keep you posted.
