Arnold is turning out to be the Margaret Trudeau of California
Three more women to accuse Arnold of being the world's leader in “copping-a-feel.” I think Arn-oo-ld is pulling the “Wooool” over the Californians eyes.

1. Not my eyes,
maybe it's too bad I don't live in California because I'd vote against the recall.

2. Arnold isn't being accused of sexual affairs
Arnold is being accused of sexual battery. I don't think Margaret Trudeau was accused of that.

3. The comparison is the onslaught of revelations of sexual peccadilloes.

I think is using “sexual battery” is much too highbrow for what he has been doing. It needs a better descriptor that places it in the scum category with a tendency towards an arrested psychological development

4. Margaret had her personal problems but she's NO ARNOLD!
She is at heart a good person and was there for Pierre Trudeau (who apparently never stopped loving her) through his final illness and death....

5. Yes, she was just a free spirit. I think that woman put up with all......
those stodgey old Ottawa types but when she hit Studio 54, she just wanted to have some fun - after all she was a young woman at the time. Her sons turned out to be decent men.

6. This was not intended as a moral judgement
More it was to remember the stream of revelations that poured forth during that time. It would seem that I picked the wrong analogy.
