Arnold
If he wins re-election in 2006 will he be term limited in 2010 or will he able to stay until 2014, given that this is only a partial term. What does the law say about that?

1. I think I read he can only run one more time after this.

5. Not unless
Bushco will use federal funds to settle the deficit in California (Arnie will let the 9 billion owed by the Texas energy cowboys go at a penny to the dollar - him and Ken lay have already sorted that out). On top of that they are poised to raid several pension funds in order to balance the budget.

And Ahnold looks like a hero, he saved California from fiscal disaster (and don't think Bushco won't bail him out to try and secure California for Repukes!) Bush turned down Davis but will empty his pockets for da' Terminator, in order to secure the state.

I hate to paint such an ugly picture but this is what I am seeing.

Read this and you will even be more freaked out.

3. On the news one of the "experts" said that
he could only run one more term after finishing this one. I think he will be in jail before then. These sex battery and statuatory rape accusations are not going away that easily IMHO. Cruz Bustamante as Lt. Governor will become Governor after all. Well, one can try to look at the silver lining, can't one.

4. I would be surprised...
... if he makes it to 2005. His chances for success seem minimal at best; he has a situation on his hands which I don't think he has ever seriously contemplated.

I certainly can't see him winning in a long-term, one-on-one match-up against a strong Democrat. He is not a long distance runner; he's a sprinter.
