Many celeberties turn politicians, Arnold is not the first. I do not understand why people consider someone who is not a life long politicain, a bad choice. Look at what the life long politicains, in control of this state, have done to date. Sometimes a breath of fresh air is needed to turn things around. Our founding fathers were farmers and businessmen, yet stand out in world history as some of the most compatent politicans of all time. It's a huge misconception that a politican is someone who has been working in, or studing civics all their life. That is so wrong, a true politicans is a member of a community who has the moral, business and social ethics, right for the job at hand. It's always been this way, so why are so many people condeming Arnold for not having served in public office before? Ignorance? Lack of reasoning? Just to make a statement? Corruption is breed into the life long politicain, simply because of the disconnect with the people durring a life long career in politics. I rather have someone fresh from the communtiy who is in touch with the people, who can relate to the people. Davis has proved his disconnect with Californians, and has admitted that in his conceedance speech. Eveyone of you that down Arnold, or claim he is oblivious to the issues, or simply stupid, need to rethink your positions. The man is a very sucessful business man. He has been succesful at everything he has done in life. He has exhibited excellece in evey aspect of his life. Why wouldn't we want someone like that in public office. He is a go getter, he follows through, and everyone can see his ambition and will power and Charecter. It takes more than some fancy suit, a cheap degree and great PR people to make a difference in this day and age. It's take someone with backbone and initiative. I think everyone can agree Arnold does posses everyone of these qualities. So enough said! Point made! Who's to say Opey, Ghod, or Myself are not politicans, becasue a politican is someone concerned for the people and someone willing to stand up and fight for what is in favor of the people. Not some people, but the majority of the people. Anyone of you could pursue an active career in politics, regardless of your experience, that's the American way. Did you people forget that? Or did you all miss that civics class? Arnold does not represent the Hollywood elite (far left) or else he would have been endorsed on the democratic party. This is one of the key reasons he did not get as many votes as he would have, if he were. A good politican knows talk is cheap and Arnold reflected that in his run, he did not allow the liberal media to misrepresent anything he said by not saying much. He outlined a plan for his first 180 days in office, I seen it, and I thought is was solid. Yet many have not looked into it, they rather listen to the media for thier informaton. It's all there outlined on his web site. He has a very respectable transition team, one that employees heavy wieghts in the political world. He is endorsed by Bill simmon, a true fiscal conservative and has David Drieir leading this transition. Come on how can you tell me his administration is incompatent without sounding ignorant yourself?

Anyone?

About the comment by KGM, Cali is going to burn? Our feet are already on the fires, should we just wait around watch our state roast. Hell no, I rather have a JFK era Democrate in office than the current liberally infested democrates remain. I know Arnold is seen a another Kennedy due to his maritial status but even so, his fiscal conservativeness aligned with the democrate idoeologies of old (kennedy clan) is a step up from the current norm. So burn, I think not, will he turn the state around, I think he and his team could.
