Arnold has had a tough time as governor. He inherited a bloated oversized budget and a huge financial mess from Davis, and he doesn’t have the financial expertise to deal effectively with this kind of a crisis. He was slow to figure out how bad this budget crisis could get and he didn’t insist on spending cuts soon enough.

Yes, in a nutshell he wasn't qualified to be governor and any intelligent person should have surmised as much. There was nothing in his background that would have indicated he would be a capable governor. He had name recognition and money behind him and that's all.

The fools who voted for Schwarzenegger really believed the hype just like the fools who voted for Obama believed it. This is very scary when you have an electorate this stupid. We (I live in CA) had a chance for a really good governor in Tom McClintock but the voters were too stupid to elect him. He didn't have name recognition. McClintock would have jumped on the budget problems way back in 2003 and with a little luck the problems we are having today would be very minor compared to the disaster we now have. But a majority of California voters wanted a movie star as governor. Quantum Stupidity. I hope at least a few Schwarzenegger voters will read this post and I hope it sinks in.

All of that is true and I think also Arnold got a lot of bad advice from liberals in the Kennedy family.

This next election is a very important test for California voters. If they elect Brown instead of Whitman, even after democrats caused a huge fiscal disaster since Wilson left office, that would prove that the voters don’t know what’s going on in their own state and it would probably lead to a severe cash crisis and effectively bankruptcy for CA.

I don’t care if Meg Whitman is spending too much money on her campaign. She still knows 100 times more about business, finance, and economics than Jerry Brown knows, and if the voters elect Brown that will prove that the voters are hopelessly dumb and uninformed, and mindlessly dependent on government. At this point, I think the California economy is so bad that Whitman will probably win in a squeaker. She should win in a landslide but there are so many idiotic voters in CA that she’ll probably only win by 1-2%.
