Susan Estritch is a serious two-faced hag who can't help but jump to gush over any Republican in office.

LOS ANGELES — The big winner in yesterday's California primary was incumbent Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold got the "Inside liberal." He got the candidate who runs weakest against him in the polls.
It could have been much, much worse.
He has come a long way since last year, when his initiatives were losing in a special election, and people were counting him out in Sacramento. This year was supposed to be a golden opportunity for the Democrats to win the State House. Think again.
The Terminator is no longer the Comeback Kid. He's the Favorite.

It would have been difficult for Arnold to cast Westley, as he no doubt will Phil, as a return to the old days of bitter partisanship. But that will be an easy role in which to cast Angelides, who is second to no one in the harshness of his anti-Arnold, partisan Democrat, old-fashioned populist rhetoric.
You might think red meat rhetoric would fly in this bluest of blue states, but when it comes to picking a governor, grey is the preferred color, and Republican grey is the generally preferred hue; with the exception of the brief Gray Davis interlude, this state has known long periods of moderate Republican rule, even as the legislature remains firmly in the hands of safely gerrymandered liberal Democrats.
Arnold begins his reelection campaign today, claiming the state is in sound shape again fiscally, booming economically; that the governor is working productively with the legislature, that the budget this year has already been completed, and a bond measure agreed to...

She basically endorsed Schwarzenneger. This is one of Fox News' one of two "liberal" columnists, with 9 right-wing fanatics as the other columnists.
