Schwarzenegger Hires Former Bush Media Consultants

Schwarzenegger Hires Former Bush Media Consultants

(AP) SACRAMENTO Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's re-election campaign has hired two media consultants who helped President Bush win a second term in 2004.

Alex Castellanos, a prominent Republican ad-maker in Arlington, Va., heads National Media. Fred Davis III, of Los Angeles, heads Strategic Perception.

Both were part of the team that created the Bush campaign commercials portraying Sen. John Kerry, the Democratic nominee, as a waffling, Washington insider.

The two are the latest in a string of former Bush aides hired by Schwarzenegger. His lead strategist is Matthew Dowd, who ran most aspects of Bush's re-election campaign. Schwarzenegger's campaign manager is Steve Schmidt, who worked on Bush's re-election campaign before joining the White House as an aide to Vice President Dick Cheney.

The more Rethugs we can tar with the "Bush Brush," the better! How can he position himself as a moderate/independent Republican if he's following Bush's leaders? Way to go, Arnie--RAH RAH RAH!

who saved California from falling into the Pacific.

They cleverly omitted the fact he cost us $80,000,000.00+ for his stupid special (s)election.

Angelides and Westly have commercials but they don't mention Gropenator's stupid special (s)election and the giant price tag.

after the Enron settlement. If it's legally possible, any Dem candidate should run on getting that money back!
