POLITIX: CONAN FOR GUV

I believe this article sums it up.
excerpt:
Any actor who has enough name recognition to hit the news with his political ideas is living in the cocoon of celebrity - their fame and fortunes protect them from the everyday travails of life the rest of us must suffer.
I lived through the attention grabbing Ventura administration. Is the world outside of Minnesota clueless about what a goofball Jesse turned out to be. How ineffective he was as a leader?

Politics aside, it is about grabbing attention. When did Arnold have a HUGE hit? Terminator 3 has been out for 36 days (as of this writing) and hasn't even cleared costs.

Are we going to see Arnold hosting a news show on CNN soon? Most cable news hosts are an annoyance (some notwithstanding).

Who cares really. RIP SONNY.
