“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Meanwhile, in California

If Arnold really feels this way, then here's what he should do: Renounce support for Proposition 75, the "Arnold hates Unions" initiative, and couple it with legislation next year that requires investors to approve where corporate money is politically spent. Then one of the major arguing points against Prop 75 is gone, and the playing field becomes a little more level.

Of course, business money would still be more readily available and still wield an influence that workers would be hard pressed to match. But I guess it would be a start.

It doesn't help, however, to read that Arnold's office is already trying to distance himself from the claim. It almost makes one feel that Arnold will do anything to succeed in politics, doesn't it?
