Arnold’s accomplishments as governor were what, exactly?

Well, he had that [memo](http://technorati.com/politics/article/the-best-acrostic-memo-youll-ever/)…

I’d probably go with Obama over Clinton; an Obama/Clinton ticket would be unstoppable and I think Clinton still has too much baggage to be the guy out in front. Obama to do the speechifying, Clinton to go knock heads together in the Senate.

I was referring to Bill Clinton. What the hell are you talking about?

[This](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_Schwarzenegger#Allegations_of_sexual_misconduct), I assume. Arnie has been accused of being a serial groper in his younger days. Hence the nickname that sprung up when he was governor of CA of **Der Gropenfuhrer**.

Okay, but the poll’s about Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

For what it’s worth I thought you were talking about Clinton as well.

I think **SA** just jumped to conclusions since you coincidentally happened to post immediately after he was waxing enthusiastic about a fantasy Schwarznegger presidency. There some scurrilous rumors that Arnie may have had an underage mistress at one time as well, so statutory rape has been floated around his name before.
