As a start, since you obviously missed it, I suggest you trek back on up this thread and find calcowgirl's post (#11).
The Constitution might also be a good resource. You know, the one that talks about the GOVERNOR being responsible for proposing a budget and approving a budget, and having line-item-veto power to achieve his goals.
It might also be fruitful to look at all of the initiatives and policies that Arnold himself has pushed. 1/2 billion dollars for Prop 49, after-school babysitting. Prop 57/58, $15 billion massive borrowing for day to day operation of government (double the figure to include interest). Prop 71, $6 billion for embryonic stem cell research. Prop 1abcde $43 billion Big Bang Bond — to “invest” in everything from bike trails to farmworker housing, including over one billion dollars for his global warming cap-and-trade program. $3 billion of fee increases for solar roofs. $8 billion for high-speed rail. Borrowing for covering annual contributions to pension plans. The list goes on.
But... none of it is his fault. /s
