Governor's pick likely a Democrat

Has arnie decided to become the "moderate" that he described himself as before his election?
(snip) Susan Kennedy, a staunch Democrat and former top aide to recalled Gov. Gray Davis, has emerged as the front-runner to become Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's new chief of staff.
As word spread Tuesday about Kennedy, Republican blogger Jon Fleischman published a plea on his Web site asking the administration or Kennedy to "help me understand why this appointment should not be interpreted as the big kiss-off to the GOP base."

1. Fleischman is running cover

IMO, but be very aware the repugs know what he has tried to do and look forward to having another 4 years to "git'er done" this is more of a suck up to the dems. They have turn on the echo chamber to lure the dems into being star struck so the repugs can make CA red.

4. Interesting.

Doesn't change my dislike of Arnie however he couldn't choose a Republican for the abortion rights position since their establishment is so anti-choice. In the end this appointment is pretty meaningless though it does show Arnold is trying to rebuild his lost credability as a moderate. I doubt it will work but it seems he is trying to move back to the center for next year's election.
