Where has anyone said that Buffett is going to "head up" Arnold's economic team? I'd heard he was going to be part of the team, and we can all assume that "part" will not be a full-time position, but an advisory capacity, with a lot of other viewpoints. Reagan did much the same. Have a divergence of opinion, let advisors debate out all sides of an issue, and then he, Reagan, would make the final decision. The most important thing in this race will be to hear the instinctive thinking or convictions from the candidates. If Arnold's instincts were formed by "Free To Choose," that's a good start.

Aug. 13 (Bloomberg) --Arnold Schwarzenegger, the actor who is running for governor of California, said billionaire investor Warren Buffett will be the financial and economic adviser to his political campaign, the campaign said in a statement.

Singular.

Arinold's own press release, which said Buffett would be THE huge influence on his economic and fiscal policies, not "an influence" or "part" of a team. Additionally, Arinold has Dicky Reardon heading up his policy on social issues. Go figure.

They were, except he probably learned that slogan from Maria's buddies at NARAL.

Yup. That way you get to understand what the opposition's reasoning/thinking is. Then you're better positioned to respond with more reason, logic, and talent addressing their positions or issues.
