he gropes women

he has participated in orgies

he admires hitler

he (supposedly) has ties to enron <--in california, isnt this an unforgiveable sin?

then again, this would keep you from public office anywhere else, but this is california...

9. Think any of that offends

and doesn't actually rouse admiration from today's ordinary Joe? Orgies, are you kidding? Tits on tap -- just reach out and grab however much you like, who could be against that? Pot, got any? Hitler -- eh, ancient history. Enron, aren't they a gas company or something?

6. Because Kindergarten Cop sucked?

Seriously... the man has no qualifications aside from the fame factor, so the question should be WHY VOTE FOR HIM? I would ask the "ordinary joe" exactly what characteristics he sought in a governor and go from there.

7. Well, an outsiders opinion, you start...

by asking the ordinary joe what he/she thinks is sexual harassment, what is acceptable, and go from there. My hope is that the "ordinary joe" will say that the kinds of things Swartzengroper did was unacceptable.

If his/her response is in support of the kinds of actions that were exposed by the LA Times, you walk away because you are not going to convince a mysogynist of anything different than a woman is an object to be used and abused. My humble opinion only.

8. I know! I know!

Do you really want people in the other 49 states laughing at your state because they elected Governor Schwarzenegger?

That'll do it!

I know. I lived in Minnesota during Ventura's administration. Never heard the end of it.

10. because governing should not be left to amatuers

running the executive branch of the world's 5th largest ecomnomy can not be left to people who know nothing about the intricacies of government.

you might s well go to a window washer for heart surgery
