Blogging Arnold and the race to replace -- HobbsOnline, InstaPundit; DrudgeReport; LILEKS; Calblog; Boomshock; Bound in a Nutshell; Pathetic Earthlings; PatioPundit; LA Observed; and Hugh Hewitt. Let me quote Hewitt, dean of the LA political analysts:
I think Arnold's a winner because he took his front runner status and married it to a huge issue. Arnold denounced the control of special interests over all of Sacramento. The railroad barons had nothing on the public employee unions, the tribes, and the trial lawyers when it comes to owning the California government. When Arnold took aim at this undeniable fact, he won many votes. He also put his finger squarely on the crisis of the day: Businesses and people are fleeing the state.Posted by Greg RansomArnold is quite simply the Shore Patrol come to restore order to a drunken bunch of sailors otherwise known as state legislators.
