He knew what he wanted, played the game better then anyone else and is still a box office draw when all his previous rivals have faded.

I guess he just got lucky

I'd wager money he gets elected.

Gotta agree 110% with this. What Ahnold lacks in book smarts he makes up for 10x in being street smart and being able to deliver what people want. People are always smarting off and saying he's dumb or he owes his success to steroids, but at the end of the day there are dozens of body builders who were better looking, spoke better english, knew better math etc, but are now working as personal trainers or in construction instead of getting paid $30 million for their last gig alone. He will be elected and do not be surprised if he manages to actually run a decent govenor's office. Anyone who doubts him can get in line with the thousands of people in his past who thought he was on the quick path back to Austria as just another dead broke, juiced up muscle head.
