Paul T. Anderson turns to politics?

A profile upon the terms-limit retirement of brash California career politico John Burton—"A brash 'Bulworth' who defined an era of California politics"—indicates Paul Thomas Anderson's next picture may be about politics: "Some reports suggest that the profane, plain-speaking politician in the movie Bulworth was modeled partly on Burton he and actor Warren Beatty are friends, after all... Anderson, of Boogie Nights fame, has told Burton that he is writing a role for him. Whether it happens or not, Burton doesn't expect to hang around Sacramento, and to many experts, it hints at a broader loss in American politics."
