Ahhhhnold for Governor

Arnold Shwarzenegger, like the true media animal he is, took advantage of his appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night to announce that he is going to place his name on the recall ballot for California governor. Other than my normal not-so-bemused dismay that here's another disparity in campaign financing (Arnold not only got great coverage, he also likely got paid by NBC to make the appearance), I'm looking on the bright side of things here: if Arnold actually gets elected, that means we won't have to suffer through another one of his movies. (And an additional bonus, unlike that other Hollywood actor turned Governor, there's no chance that Arnold can be President, as he wasn't born in the U.S.)

He’s gonna terminate the states debt.

or something...

I would have never voted for a republican, EVER !!

However, after hearing Arnold's views on certain issues, I wish he was running for Govenor in my state. I think now that he will be an excellent Govenor and great leader.

Given the increasing "need" for the ability of politicians to present bare-faced lies as the truth, I'm sure Arnold and the rest of his actor colleagues will make great elected officials as well.
