Dear Citizens of California:
134 candidates and this is your front runner? Seriously?
Schwarzenegger: 'I have behaved badly sometimes'
"I now recognize that I have offended people and to those people that I offended I want to say that I am deeply sorry and I apologize."
...
In the speech, Schwarzenegger vowed to be a "champion of women" if he is elected governor of California.
I'm sorry I groped you inappropriately, but really, I really, really, really want to be governor (that'll show those inlaws), so I promise to champion women's issues. Just come over to my office around 9pm and we'll discuss. wink.
The hypocracy is mindboggling. Can you just imagine the shit storm that would brew up if this were a Democrat?-----

It is the people who don't learn about the issues and take 30 sec. soundbites to heart that seem to vote for the GOP (who are leading us to hell in a handbasket - but it's ok, if you're rich it's a gold handbasket).
The recall is a complete threat to democracy. We have a different built in recall process - it's called elections. If you don't like what the person does in office, vote them out. But elections are for certain terms and you should allow the person their entire term for their policies to have affect.

The recall is a perfect illustration of democracy in action! Calling the recall a dangerous precedent is a sign of the idiocy of the people and actually scares me due to the fact that a democracy is actually based on the assumption that more than half of the people are right more than half of the time. The stupidity of my fellow Californians and Americans alike scares me and makes me wonder where the masses will lead us. The Grand Old Party will lead the way to a better future. Follow our lead!

dur! Of course that is why these revelations are coming out now, but also because no one would have cared that he did these things when he was just an actor. While they may not agree with his attitudes toward women, in the past they had no affect on most people's lives.. now they do matter.
The recall is a dangerous precedent in a representative democracy. Vote no!

The timing of the revelations of the supposed victims of our future governor is not coincidental. It is a worthless attempt to derail the recall and the frontrunner. Sorry Cruz, sorry Davis - YOUR TIME IS UP! HASTA LA VISTA!

Ah... so if you're qualified... then groping is okay :-)

CJ - isn't that a little like the pot calling the kettle black? The Republicans are practically wetting themselves with excitement about the possibility of a Republican governor in CA. So much so that all of a sudden the things they thought were so evil about Clinton are now ok. please!
Not to mention that Clinton was qualified, Arnold has not demonstrated the same.

I, personally, am not a big Arnold for Governor guy (would prefer McClintock). But it's so funny to hear liberal hypocrites. It's alright for a President to have an intern between his legs in the Oval Office... but Arnold can't be governor. Pick one or the other... can't have both.
