Schwarzenegger: I'll take fellow GOP govs' stimulus money
Fresh off a grueling budget battle in his state, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Saturday that if fellow Republican governors threatening to turn down stimulus funds follow through on their pledge, he'd be happy to have their share.

"Everyone has their own way of thinking," Schwarzenegger said of those governors in an interview with POLITICO at the National Governors Association's annual meeting. "I just hope they give me their funding."

Schwarzenegger supports President Barack Obama's $778 billion stimulus, but four Republican governors have said they may reject some of the stimulus funds.

2. There is no such thing as "infighting in the GOP."
This is just another role for Ahnult, which he can't pull off convincingly.

He's such an attention whore.

3. He's now a pariah in the state Republican party
Persona non grata. He will play out the rest of his term in the margins. He might as well make the play for the money.

6. It's all for show.
All done to make it appear as though the GOP is worth the time to discuss.
