Governor-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger has appointed conservative Republican Congressman David Dreier to head his transition team.

Schwarzenegger won a landslide election Tuesday night in a vote that saw the ouster of gay-positive governor Gray Davis (story)

Following the announcement of Dreier's appointment, the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center invited the governor-elect to a meeting with the state's gay and lesbian leaders.



so far, off to a pretty crappy start

[West Coast Democrat]

1. Will he give up his congressional seat?

Is it in play?

2. I'm very worried

I wasn't so much worried about Ahhnold being elected...i was more worried about the people who he would surround himself with.

3. Well, that's just shocking

NOT

[cally]

4. Is anyone surprised by this?

To think that Arnie will support gay rights is just naive. He will repeal all the gains made under Davis.

[Melinda]

5. But I thought that David Dreier is gay... I'm very confused!!!

In the closet, but gay - am I wrong?

6. What's really interesting is that for years...

...people have speculated on Capitol Hill that David Dreier is gay himself.

7. Do I hear Wilson laughng

SUCKKAS

8. Jesse Ventura was right.

Arnold is a Republican through and through.

9. Off-topic but related: Dreier is chairman of the Rules committee

which is THE MOST important committee in the House. He really ought to get back to Washington....

[West Coast Democrat]

10. I thought he was Arnold's campaign chairman

but I could be wrong

11. Clutch the pearls!

I'm so shocked! NOT! Now the question is: will any Californians pay attention to how he governs as opposed to what he ran as?
