He is not so much a consistent centrist as a mix of conservative and liberal positions, an eclectic combination of views that makes him a bad fit for either the Republican or Democratic parties in this state, at least as they are currently defined by their elites.

In other words, he's all over the place, a hybrid politico.

On social issues, his instincts go left but are tempered by the legal and political realities he confronts.

I think it's actually the opposite, that he is (somewhat) socially conservative, but knows that's a hard sell here in California, so he tempers his positions toward the left.

In any case, though I guess I'm in the minority on FR, I like Ahnold. I think that at least you know where you stand with him, since he tends to say what he thinks and let the devil take the hindmost. And I hope he manages to get his redistricting proposition through! Goodness knows we need it.
