Arrrnold... did he say "race" or "debate" last night?
Anyone have a link to a video clip?

<snip>
According to the Associated Press and guests on CNN's ``Larry King Live'' show, during his Tuesday night speech before the Republican National Convention, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said he decided to become a Republican after watching Hubert Humphrey and Richard Nixon debate in the 1968 presidential election.
<snip>
There's only one thing wrong -- Nixon never debated Humphrey.

According to the prepared text of Schwarzenegger's speech the passage was written, ``I remember watching the Nixon-Humphrey presidential race on TV . . .''

Mercury News reporter Jim Puzzanghera, who was in Madison Square Garden during Schwarzenegger's address and who taped the speech, said after reviewing the audiotape that the governor said ``race'' not ``debate.''
