Governor Schwartzenegger
California Governor-elect Arnold Schwartzenegger will probably govern much as President Ronald Reagan did: by going to the people and over the heads of the Democrat legislature and the California government bureaucracy that is loaded to the gills with Davis-appointed bureaucrats looking to thwart Schwartzenegger at every turn. He has his work cut out for him but an improving economy will help and Arnold's leadership abilities will probably make the difference between his being an impotent Governor and an active, successful one. He'll be using both Executive Orders and the veto quite often, I'm certain...he'll have to.
As I see it, Californians are tired of being screwed over and having their collective will ignored by arrogant, corrupted but oh-so 'experienced' politicians. They clearly want change and when the Democrats stand in the way they'll be flattened. and Arnold Schwartzenegger will be driving the bulldozer, smoking a big cigar and saying: Hasta la Vista, Baby" Life is good.

Absolutely. I don't dislike Arnold because he's a republican or a conservative or what have you. I dislike him because I think he's an idiot. Remember when we were about to go to war and all of those actors stood up against it and everyone said "why the F should I listen to them? They're actors."? Same thing. Actors make a career out of lying. This is who you want leading your state? I just hope he proves me wrong.

Well, its like this, he HAS to do good or he WILL be out next election. There are too many democrats in California and the only reason why Arnold did win the recall is he only had to have the majority of the recall votes. In a normal election he wouldn't stand a chance unless he does something to improve the state.

Governor-elect Schwartzenegger
Arnold Schwartzenegger was an immigrant and a successful bodybuilder who invested his winnings in California real estate. He was a self-made millionaire by his mid-20's. Nobody gave him anything. He didn't get into movies until he was almost 30 and despite his foreign-sounding, hard-to-pronounce name, his Austrian accent and his oversized muscles, he became a huge success and made many more millions while managing to marry a Kennedy relative in the process. Arnold Schwartzenegger is no pampered actor who never did a hard days work and has a mouthful of anti-American garbage to spew out at us, like too many Hollywood prima donnas. He's for real.
Arnold Schwartzenegger is a very rich, successful and intelligent man who, at age 56, needs the Govnership of California like he needs more muscles. He ran because he cared about the demise of his adopted state. What the heck has Sean Penn or any of these other Hollywood leftists that bash the president 24/7 ever contributed to California besides their tax money? Arnold didn't just complain about the state and it's corrupt leadership, he put himself on the line and walked away from another 20-million-dollar payday in Terminator 4 to run for Governor, a thankless job. Those who know zilch about Arnold Schwartzenegger or politics and offer flip negative comments simply miss the point that the election of Arnold Schwartzenegger is a good thing for the state of California and will improve things in that troubled state. For the politically uninformed, Schwartzenegger is a 'moderate' Republican, that is, he is pro-choice and pro-gay-marriage but believes in the Second Amendment and especially in lower taxes. No conservative by a long shot by also no flaming liberal who wants to tax everyone to death, either. Schwartzenegger is honest and owes the special interests nothing. California needs change from the corrupt government it's tolerated for too long. Schwartzenegger's big election victory proved that Californians are ready to try something new. Arnold Schwartzenegger is what the stste needs and in 3 years, California will be better for his being Governor.

I understand what you are saying Mr 5.0, but you know that I'm right in saying that he HAS to make an improvement before the end of his term if he wants to stay in office for another. On top of that, any negatives will be strong ammunition for anyone who runs against him. I never said that he doesn't have the potential to do a good job, but if he wants to have more than one term, he HAS to do a good job.

Actually, if you read back, I'm reluctantly willing to give him a chance and see how he does. I just don't see him pulling this one out. Trust me...just because I think California voters screwed the pooch electing him doesn't mean I'm partisan. Again, if you'll read back, I think that both of the major parties in this country are ridiculous and childish and that anyone who labels themselves as such is too close minded to see the bigger picture. You do have to admit, the people of California aren't exactly known for a long track record of great decisions. I'm willing to wait and see if he does a good job, but that doesn't mean I'll stop thinking he's a moron.

Arnold Schwartzenegger (who holds a degree in Business Management and Economics, by the way, not that this will matter to those who think he's a 'moron') may not be the panacea California would like but he'll make a difference and break the hold of the special interests as he can't be bought and doesn't care about running for higher office - and as a foreign-born citizen, he can't be president. Schwartzenegger will succeed and by doing so, California will improve, if not totally recover from where the tax-happy Democrats put it. Nice of you to give him a chance, a chance he earned from the voters of California.

Just look at it this way...I have too little faith and you perhaps have too much. My opinion of his as a dolt has nothing to do with his political views but more his personal attitudes and choices. Either way it's solely an opinion. You're more than welcome to disagree...but you won't change my mind.
Edit: Nobody's a true "non-politician". Everyone has to start a political career somewhere. As for owing nothing to special interst groups...that should be followed up with the word "yet". Everyone has an agenda.

Governator Schwartzenegger
84_GT350:
The day I think a few messages exchanged on an internet messageboard will change the mind of one who calls people like Arnold Schwarzenegger a 'moron' is the day I'll start running for office as my powers of persuasion will have proven to be beyond my expectations. Not likely. My purpose in posting is to refute some of your suppositions and offer another version of the picture you paint of Governor-elect Schwartzenegger. Having done so, I can now leave the thread. We made our respective points. Time will decide who was correct.
