Arnold Could be OK

I didn't vote for him, but he won. His acceptance speech was good, but performance matters, yeah yeah. I wanted to vote for him, but the harrassment stories made it impossible. Also, electing him was essentially a hail-mary pass, only time will tell us if he receives it. What's wrong with a hail-mary election to shake things up? I just remember this conversation in 2000:

"oh well, he won. He'll just be a do-nothing president, what's the worst that could happen? It's not like he's going to start a WAR or something"!

Also, if the republican party starts to follow the California model and moves away from this scary model, then we'll have two Democratic parties. And you know what Harry Truman would say about Democrats vs. Democrats. Only time will tell.
