4. few more:
(_) spied on someone
(_) spied on political opponent
(_) ran a torture-murder facility inspired by Eli Roth's Hostel

I hope for a scandal to remove AHNULD, but I'm afraid it would be that last one

10. I also forgot a category for "Joe The Plumber".
I'm not quite sure what that would imply though.

And I dont think Ahnuld can run for a second term because of the circumstances surrounding his first election. I'm not sure on that though.

Although I should point out that if you add hypocritical douchebaggery to any of the following (like say an anti-gay marriage morals and values senator is caught hiding his male escort from his wife) THAT is how you get your fuckin' scandal! :evilgrin:
