Heads of over 100 major companies have joined Starbucks Corp. CEO Howard Schultz in a pledge to boycott political donations until Congress and the president agree on a long-term debt and deficit plan, Schultz announced in a letter Wednesday.

Schultz leans very strongly to D in his donations.

It would be interesting to see the leanings of the other 100 CEOs to see if this will be seized on by one side or the other as an ethical "weakness" to be exploited.

And how much do CEOs donate personally versus corporates and anonymous PACs.
