[Colin Glassey] Schwarzenegger for Govenor?

Well, up until yesterday I was going to vote against the recall of Govenor Davis but with Mr. Schwarzenegger in the race, I've changed my mind. Try this message (as construed by blogger Omphalos: Gray sold California to the special interests and I'm here to take it back. I don't care what you do in your private life, and I don't want to impose my values on you. I want a state government that works and doesn't break the backs of the average taxpaying citizen, and a society that offers opportunity and hope as it did to me as a humble but legal immigrant.

Schwarzenegger has been one of my favorite actors ever since he made Conan. He is, by any reasonable standards, a political moderate. Lately that seems to have been a sure ticket to failure in the Primaries (look at Riordan's campaign from last year). So this recall campaign is the moderate republican's big chance to get into the office. I voted against Bill Simon last year and would do so again. Richard Riordan, former mayor of Los Angeles, was a good cantidate but at age 73, he is getting a bit old to take over California in this time of trouble.

BTW: Dan Weintraub (columnist for the Sacramento Bee) thinks Schwarzenegger will win the race
