Ahnuld Hires A Democrat... A "Kennedy" as his chief of staff
A pro choice, gay, Democrat! Just heard it on Rachel Maddow (podcasting late today)...

Whoah. Heheheh she keeps replaying his "I love Susan" (her girlfriend's name) on a loop. Yikes now I'll be dreaming about Ahnuld saying that too.

He's still an idiot, but at least he's not as dumb as *... At least he understands and is trying to appeal to those who aren't right-wing pigdogs... hopefully he will still fail.

2. That's what Rachel said...
She said she's all for Repugs going more middle of the road, but what honorable Dem would want to help them do that?

Despite their party differences, Kennedy said she couldn't find a lot of differences between her political philosophy and the governor's. Kennedy said she had voted for all four of Schwarzenegger's ballot measures in the special election.

And her tenure on the Public Utilities Commission, of which she has been a member for the past two years, illustrated that she is business-friendly -- consumer groups described their distaste Wednesday for her decisions on the regulation of telephone companies and energy utilities.

Describing Kennedy as a "foaming-at-the-mouth zealot'' when it came to supporting business over consumer interests, Michael Shames, executive director of the San Diego-based Utility Consumers' Action Network, said he was delighted Kennedy would be leaving the commission.

"She is as fervent a free-market, pro-business conservative as anyone who has been on the commission in the last 20 years,'' Shames said...

11. Not if she wants to work for a Democrat.
Party hopping is not a good way to land a job these days.
