Things are looking up in California. Looks like Californians may have the priviledge of once again having Arnold as their Governor for a second term ...

Arnold Will Run for Re-election as California Governor
- Thread starter Nascar_James
- Start date
More likely,they will toss him out of office this time around. He's almost as bad as governor as he was an actor.
Re: RE: Arnold Will Run for Re-election as California Govern
You just might have. Many notable actors are Republicans, including Arnold. They are not as cry-baby-like as are their Democrat counterparts.
The top actor in my book, Robert Duvall is a Republican.
Here is a list (unofficial) of more Hollywood Republicans ...
The Rock (Dwayne Johnston), Bruce Willis, Mel Gibson, Matt LeBlanc, Tiger Woods, Jessica Simpson, Demi Moore, Pat Sajak, Danny Aiello, Tom Selleck, Chuck Norris, Charlton Heston, Kelsey Grammer, James Woods, Bo Derek, Dennis Miller, Clint Eastwood, Alice Cooper, Kurt Russell, Tony Danza, Kevin Costner, Bruce Boxleitner, Bob Barker, James Belushi, Heather Locklear, Vince McMahon, Britney Spears, Ric Flair......
and the list goes on and on......

What?!?!? This is another topic, Peapod!
Don't the rules say something about keeping topics in the right place or something?
Arny?? you mean that woman groping sleaze bag steroid pusher?? Sounds right for California. Cos isn't that the state that bore reckless Ronny Raygun, that genius of 'trickle down economics.' Let's give the rich all the money cos they can sure spend it better than the poor.
sheesh........if CalfornI-A......wants a social climber on steroids for Gov. So what?? Look who the Americans elected for Prez for a SECOND time.
no accounting for bad taste and poor judgement. ( MONEY is all that matters.... MONEY Is the standard that ethics are measured in........States side. Rome had it's gold )

RE: Arnold Will Run for R
I am surprised he will run again, so low in polls and disliked as bad if not worse than the guy he took job from. Plus he only was elected because of his name anyways. California is a left wing state and the democrats will win next time.
Recent polls have shown he is popular among about one-third of California voters.

Arnold was an Action Star and never had any acting chops.As for his money,you know he didn't spend one penny of his millions on his campaigns. Robert Duvall shouldn't be mentioned in the same page as Arnold!

Arnold is a perfect example of an immigrant who integrated successfully into American society. He is a good success story of the type of role model future immigrants can look up to. I know I did.

Why not, they are both noted Republicans. I do agree that Arnold has stared in mainly action type movies, however there are some exceptions. I recall he did act with Danny DeVito in a commedy, I think it was called twins. Robert Duvall is in my book in a class above the rest when it comes to acting. He is a natural. A good example was his role in the movie Open Range. One of the best movies I've ever seen!
RE: Arnold Will Run for R
Arnie's political skills seem to be even worse than his acting skills. That's why his numbers are in the toilet. The man's an incompetent idiot who tries to get through life spewing bad one-liners that somebody else wrote for him.

I can post in any thread I like nascar, feck! whata are you the hall monitor, blah! those guys, one thing about hall monitors, how come you can always see the crack of their ass's eh???
I was laughing nascar because, what difference does a movie star's politics have on most people. Most people do their own thinking.

I saw a Robert Duvall film recently - The Handmaid's Tale. Are you familiar with it, Nascar? It's based on a Margeret Atwood book, a feminist allegory set in a future society, where the christian right have come to power, and in which environmental pollution and toxic waste have reduced fertility to a minimum and healthy babies are at a premium. A powerful totalitarian regime isolates fertile young women and doles them out as breeders for the ruling elite.
Dark stuff, very thought-provoking. I recommend it. Better still, read the book. 8)

I did see the Handmaid's Tale, but long ago. Must have been at least 10 years ago. Was not one of my favorite movies. It was more of a science fiction type movie.
Now Open Range, ahhh ... there is an excellent movie. Outstanding performances by both Robert Duvall and Kevin Kostner. Reminds me somewhat of the old John Wayne westerns. Kind of nostalgic as well.

While driving home on Friday I heard on the radio that only 35% of Californians wanted to see Ahnie back in office for the next term. Of course, after the Bush debacle, all bets are off.
