7. How quickly we forget.....
Bush Jr campaigned as a moderate centrist "compassionate conservative" and managed to get enough of the centrist and indy vote to make the Florida theft possible. Yes he stole the election, but he almost won, due to the false image he was portraying.

And immediately after the Supreme Court installed him, he assembled the most reactionary cabinet of fascists possible, betraying everything he had run on. - Not that it surprised me in the least. :grr:

Having said that, I don't believe Arnold's moderate Republican views - or at least his claims of them - were just invented for this campaign, he has mentioned in past interviews that he didn't have much in common with the extreme right, and one would think that someone in the far fringes of extreme conservatism wouldn't be welcomed into America's most famous Democratic family.

My fears of a Schwarzenegger administration in California aren't so much the Terminator himself as it will be the PNAC - picked team assembled to surround him, and corrupt the state - or more specifically the 54 electoral votes that are crucial to ending the Bush Criminal Empire's brutal regime.
