I recently discovered politicalbase.com and highly recommend it to any one interested in learning more about their politicians. They lay out information in an easy to navigate manner and list the total contributions each politician has received. You can browse by 'issues' to find out which politicians are doing what on the topics that you care about. Also their sign up process is fast and beautifully executed.
Each candidate has a wiki style entry where users can upload and manage information. It's light on some specific types of content (e.g. proposed legislation, bill tracking) but it shows tons of promise and will no doubt help usher in a new era of transparency.

Thanks a ton! That was very informational, I just bookmarked your url.
Politics is of course very annoying, politicians do annoy me because of their bad performance ;-`
