What will happen is Arnold (sexual predator) gets elected and
then after he becomes governor, one of the women he abused comes forward or sues him?

Is there another recall?
Does the LT Gov take over, and who is that?

I mean you KNOW this what is going to happen.

2. I think that should happen
Someone should start a petition, because I know they won't have a problem getting the signatures.

3. Read the salon article about who is after Arnold
Hollywood women. I think he has many enemies who will be out to get him.

Hollywood's battle of the sexes over Arnold
Movie industry women are working to expose the actor's sexual misbehavior, while men are protecting him. Their efforts have led at least some of his victims to come forward, but will voters care?

Oct. 6, 2003 | LOS ANGELES -- The minute Arnold Schwarzenegger announced that he was running for California governor Aug. 6, all of Hollywood knew that tales of his womanizing would make headlines again. The prospect of news cameras zooming in on Schwarzenegger's private life was supposedly the big reason his wife, Maria Shriver, had reservations about his running. There had been plenty of stories about the actor's high jinks even before he'd officially become a politician: In March 2001 Premiere magazine printed a now-notorious article by writer John Connolly that featured named and unnamed sources detailing instances in which the actor groped women's breasts, bullied and humiliated assistants and crew members on movie sets, and cheated on Shriver.

Years earlier Connolly had revealed, in an October 1993 US magazine, that several women who worked for famed Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss had auditioned for Schwarzenegger's unsuccessful movie "The Last Action Hero." The Los Angeles Times reported that Columbia Pictures' parent company Sony was investigating whether these women were hired as "extras" on the overbudget movie. Around the same time, a French women's magazine reported that one of Heidi's women claimed the muscleman himself was a client while on the set of "Last Action Hero." Schwarzenegger sued and won under France's stringent libel laws, but with the actor's sudden entry into the recall race, all the old stories were being chased again.

The whole month of August, I watched the recall story swirl around me, as a spectator, not a reporter. While many of my colleagues were covering Arnold, I was putting the finishing touches on my book, "Mr. and Mrs. Hollywood: Edie and Lew Wasserman and Their Entertainment Empire" (Carroll & Graf). It turned out that my seat on the sidelines gave me a remarkable view of one of the more riveting stories in town: how the media chased the women whom Schwarzenegger allegedly chased (or groped, fondled or harassed, depending on the source), and how a platoon of Hollywood women labored to bring forth their stories.

That'd be interesting.

7. Recall #2
So, it's the men against the women, eh? Let's see... all the women should be easy to get on one side. Add a few million men and it's a majority.

But as long as women support politicians like AS's, the brothers will always be able to out rule the sisters!

8. Whatever suits there will be they will be offset
...by the 9 billion dollars he saves the energy industry by settling the energy ripoff of California for a few pennies. He's there to save the reputation of Enron and company, repuke ideologues and deregulation. California will be privatized while he is governor and go the way of Argentina and Bolivia.

10. Election must be certified
... before signatures can be collected. So wait, it may take a while. Any signatures before certification could jeopardize the second recall.

If Arnie settles the Enron suit for pennies then California will have a solid reason for recalling him. Becoming govenor with less votes than the person you replaced is reason enough, but screwing California out of 9 billion is something everybody can understand.

9. MSGOP Exit Polls
According to Tweety, the latest MSGOP exit polls show that WOMEN are equally split on their overall (positive/negative) impression of Arnold AFTER the groping revelations, 48-48. The guy comes out and admits, "yeah, I'm a fucking pig, I grope women and I'm gonna keep on doing it, but gee, I apologize if anybody was offended by it." And with men? They overwhelmingly love him! Then Peggy Nooner comes on whoring for Arnold in response to the poll!!! God I want to puke. Maybe Arnold will come over to the MSGOP set and grope Peggy and cram her fucking ugly head down a toilet; of course she'd probably love that.

I can't fucking believe this shit! If this is true, then the women of California deserve what they get, a goddam groping He-Man on Steroids! What does it take to get through to these fucking idiots???? Does Arnold have to beat that pathetic corpse-looking Maria Shriver to a bloody pulp with his bare hands, and then smile about it to the media saying that she DESERVED it because she was too fat???

I am totally fucking appalled. If the Dems of California don't give enough of a damn to get out to the fucking polls and defeat this second-rate movie star who can't act, then they fucking deserve whatever they get.

This makes me sick sick sick. I think I'll just go grope somebody.
