My wife and I saw an Arnold ad for Governor of California that caused us to jump up, grab our bear republic flags and cheer.

In the ad, Arnold said that California has a financial crisis that he is gong to jump right in and solve. If elected Governor he will call for an immediate audit of the state’s books.

Just what we need, an ACTION HERO who will leap right in there and - by God audit the books!
