Tigermike 4,266 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Hey Arnold Maybe if California didn't have a governor and a legislature more than willing to pile up trillions of dollars of debt “giving the people what they wantâ€Â, maybe just maybe the state wouldn't be so close to bankruptcy. The Governator: February 22, 2009Categories: Leadership Arnold: GOP out of touch California Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger suggested that his party is out of touch with average Americans on the issue of health care. “You've got to listen to the people. If the nation is screaming out loud, ‘We need health care reform. We want to have universal health care. We want to have everyone insured. We want to bring the costs down. We want everyone to have access.’ I mean, that's what they want; that's what you do,†Schwarzenegger said on ABC’s “This Week.†Arguing that California Republicans were out of touch with the majority of Californians who wanted to raise taxes to fix the state’s budget crisis, Schwarzenegger said it is “the same nationwide.†He said Republicans need to embrace what the people want, even if it means accepting tax increases that go against their party principles: “Even though it maybe is against your principles or philosophy, you still have to go, because that's what the people want you to do,†he said.

Why run on them, tell voters they’ll be your guide and get elected because of them? Schwarzenegger has gone from a somewhat entertaining RINO to an outright idiot.
