Here's my prediction...what do you guys think???

[MidwestTransplant]

In about a year, there will be a lot less vitriol toward Aahnold on DU because.....He will not endorse Bush for president or if he does it will be so tepid that it alone will send a message. I just don't see Maria letting him do that.

1. Maria lets him grope people on live TV...

what makes you think she has any say in what he does?

[barbaraann]

2. Um, I think Maria would let him do absolutely anything.

8. Maria's an upper-class motorcycle mama/biker chick

He's her big toughguy and he's just dreamy. She hangs on tight as he drives that big throbbing hog and cuts off the other drivers.

3. I think your prediction is ridiculous

5. Oh Sh_t...I forgot my flame retardant suit!

7. I do that sometimes.

Interesting prediction.

:hi:

10. You asked what do you guys think

I think your suggestion that arnie won't endorse bush is absurd. If you're not prepared for honest responses then don't ask for what others think.

4. Dream on

Arnold will do everything he can to have his soul brother carry this state by the biggest margin possible.

We have ceased to be a democracy

6. Wishful thinking

He will endorse Bush.

"You guys are the real terminators."

9. LOL...

the bush team got Issa to fork up the dough. The bushteam helped him put his political advisors together. The bushteam helped push the national media (early on when there were a bunch of repubs in the race) to focus on arnie, arnie, arnie!

You think he will turn on his sponsors? Seems like wishful thinking.

12. I was being nice when I said it was ridiculous. I think it's a pretty

stupid question really, and like you I thought it was obvious. Go figure?

13. Wrong. Arnold will be a featured act at the '04 GOP Convention in NYC...

Who better to "terminate 'terrists'" than a cartoon action figure?

Arnold is a Bush family friend. He met with Ken Lay at the peak of the CA energy crisis. He's right at home with the worst of them.

14. my prediction is that he will suck so bad as governor

that the GOP will not want his endorsement.
On the other hand, since when do Republicans have to produce results?
Now that it is October, this is the sound of me holding my breath waiting for the jobs to be created from that tax cut last May. Maybe the jobs, the WMD, Saddam, and Osama are all hidden in the same cave in Pakistan at the end of a rainbow, right next to JR's integrity.

15. You're right of course, Ahnold is a projection, a myth

...a religious icon, a substitute for rational thought. He is the ultimate propaganda man, the proverbial superman or fascist ideal "man of action." What Ahnold actually accomplishes is irrelevant because the regressed political mindset in America does not concern itself with reality, only with barely articulated and poorly understood myths. We do not see the dead, the suffering and the unemployed, we only see glory.

The absolute claim of a Civitas Dei that is represented by man bears an unfortunate resemblance to the "divinity" of the State, and the moral conclusion drawn...("the end sanctifies the means") anticipates the lie as a political instrument in an exceedingly dangerous way.
