Well CA's views change so often you really can't see what is going to happen.
And while being a "newb" at the area of politics gives Arnold a few advantages as you said Mojo... it also creates issues.
You can't just take over the most populous state in CA with the largest budget problem - one that will double after the recall (a lot of it because of the recall's cost) - and not have a clue what you want to do next.
The platform on economics for ALL the candidates are very very very vague - in fact, most don't even have a clue as to what to do. Arnold said he wanted to bring business back into CA - well you can't do that w/o having taxes since everyone seems to be going to Nevada. And no taxes won't be a guarantee - could make things worse if it ends up bad.
And other candidates don't have much to say either - the problem is that hard to figure out a solution to.
As for the entire situation... I still say those who want the recall are just blood-sucking leaches - then again, all politicians are
