This is a ridiculous and photoshopped picture, someone had put Arnold's head on some aging guys body.
Arnold is still in very good physical and mental shape, first of all.
Second of all, his physical condition is not what's important for the governorship, but his stance against taxes, for one, while Angelides can't wait to raise your taxes.
Really?
Terminator exposes soft underbelly

Considering how protective Gov. Schwarzenegger is of his image, he should have had someone protecting his flank -- and his belly -- when the paparazzi caught him vacationing in Maui, Hawaii.
A photo in a London tabloid that wound up on the Drudge Report Web site this week revealed that the washboard abs of Schwarzenegger's bodybuilding and movie-star prime are losing the battle with gravity.
Forget "Terminator" and think "Tummy-nator."
Forget Mr. Olympia and think Mr. Krispy Kreme.
After seeing the photo and listening to radio ads attacking Schwarzenegger, I'm wondering if he still has the muscle to fend off opponents and implement his controversial government reform package.
I mean, the governor looked pretty good for 57 years old. That said, the cigars, wine and steroids clearly have taken a toll.
Somebody should have told him to keep his shirt on -- if only to maintain the illusion that he is a superman capable of stemming government red ink with a couple of turns of a movie prop spigot.
