THE NOTE

Jacob Schlesinger writes in the Wall Street Journal that George Shultz is once again "attempting to throw his cloak of respectability around" a political candidate who may be perceived as a policy lightweight. The former Secretary of State helped beef up the credentials of Ronald Reagan for his 1980 run for the White House and did much the same for George W. Bush in advance of his 2000 campaign.

In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, Rush Limbaugh calls California "a liberal proving-ground run amok" and says Schwarzenegger is no Ronald Reagan. He laments what he sees as an attitude by conservatives that California is so messed up that it can't be fixed with conservative principles ? so they turned to Schwarzenegger.

"Their thinking has led them to support Arnold Schwarzenegger, who, to my knowledge, has yet to embrace any conservative positions, though he has embraced Warren Buffett. Hasta la vista, whatever."
