And I'll go one step further . . .
In a recall election involving a thoroughly unpopular governor in a state that is in the toilet economically, the ideal candidate to replace him is the following:
1. Someone who is not known as a politician -- because politicians created the mess in the first place.
2. Someone who has instant name recognition -- because there isn't much time to campaign.
3. Someone who smiles alot and speaks English with a "trademark" accent -- because anyone he runs against will always look like a sleazy, smooth-talking politician in comparison.
