There are 40 millionaires in the U.S. Senate--22 Republicans, 18 Democrats, 6 women. Check out the list here.

As to presidential hopefuls, here's a partial breakdown:

Among the 2004 Democratic White House hopefuls who are serving in the Senate, Kerry reported the most holdings. But Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina was not hurting. He reported a net worth ranging from $12.8 million to $60 million. Sen. Bob Graham of Florida reported holdings of $7.7 million to $31.6 million, and Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut had an estimated net worth of $482,000 to $1.8 million.

Update: Bill and Hillary did pretty well too. They deserve to....the groundless investigation into Whitewater by the Independent Counsel cost them over $7 million in legal fees already paid out and between $1.7 and $6 million more that they still owe. Under the independent counsel statute, they are entitled to be reimbursed by the Government for their legal fees because they weren't indicted.

The independent counsel statute in effect was 28 U.S.C. Section 553, which provided:

(f) Attorneys' fees.

(1) Award of fees. Upon the request of an individual who is the subject of an investigation conducted by an independent counsel pursuant to this chapter, the division of the court may, if no indictment is brought against such individual pursuant to that investigation, award reimbursement for those reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by that individual during that investigation which would not have been incurred but for the requirements of this chapter. The division of the court shall notify the independent counsel who conducted the investigation and the Attorney General of any request for attorneys' fees under this subsection.

We hope the Bill and Hillary and in particular, attorney David Kendall, get every last penny of their legal fees paid by the Government.
