Ahh, yes, the unfortunate truth of politics, it is very possible that someone can win on celebrity. I'm hoping that the people of California can look past it all and elect on merit...Arnold has no chance, then, if you look at his weak attempts to dodge politics.
The problem with the modern Democrat is a fear that Democrats look weak, so they feel with crime they have to go to the other end of things-- there really is no two party system anymore, I don't believe. It's why so many Americans went Green, methinks. Davis has pissed me off for a long, long time, and while the budget is the main reason that they're giving for the recall, there are many other reasons I would vote to have him removed if I were a California citizen. The thing about Arnold is, he's a Hollywood republican, not that it somehow fixes everything, but his attitudes seem to be more down the middle than anything, with a bit of right-wing bent.
Basically I've given up on my dreams of moving to California, and realized that Canada may be the last safe haven for Americans bothered by the way their country is being run.
