145. What I object to
I object to the attitude on Mr. Schwarzenegger's part that he is entitled to run the government of the largest state in the Union because he's famous and because he was part-owner of Planet Hollywood. Schwarzenegger's lack of qualification will soon become painfully clear to the people of California.

Attacking his accent? Certainly that's a cheap thing to do. But what I don't hear (in the mainstream press, at least) are attacks on his qualifications.

The man has no political skills at all. He's mastered the sound byte, and that's all. He's insulting the people he will have to work with come October 8th.

Why attack small, unimportant things about him like his accent when there are soooo many better things to attack him for, like his complete inability to grasp the issues he will have to deal with as governor?
