Bush is a good campaigner say Republicans? So why are independents confused?

I think I've answered the question, and yes, [Arnold Schwarzenegger] would be a good governor, as would others running for governor of California. Like you, I'm most interested in seeing how the process evolves. It's a fascinating bit of political drama evolving in the state -- in the country's largest state.

I appreciate so very much the Prime Minister, Jean Chretien, for joining us here. He has been a steadfast friend. I really enjoy dealing with him on a personal basis. He's a plain-spoken fellow, with a good sense of humor. Probably won't go too good up here in Canada, but he'd be a great Texan.

All of your quotes are sad and pathetic attacks, but this one actually made me laugh out loud.  Anybody who knows anything about politics knows that California is the largest state because of its 55 electoral votes.  Land mass does not matter in politics, population and EVs do.

Man, there should be a manditory "pre-election education" course for voters to take before casting their vote.  Is Nomo a part of Leno's "Man on the street" routine?  hahaha
