SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Peter Ueberroth, the Republican business executive who built a career taking over troubled situations and turning them around, is dropping out of the California gubernatorial recall race.

Ueberroth canceled several radio interviews Tuesday morning and scheduled a 1 p.m. news conference "to discuss the future of his campaign." A campaign source close to Ueberroth told The Associated Press that Ueberroth was dropping out of the campaign.

3. Good news for Arnold

Now if McClintock drops out, it'll be clear sailing for him.

I wonder if Rove is pressuring these guys the way he pressured Issa not to put his name on the ballot.

Now California is cheated of the chance to have a governor whose major accompllshment in life was the illegal collusion scheme in major league baseball.
