I am going to continue to post "inside" articles on Arnold as long as they are interesting that the National campaign is in the doldrums.

An olive branch?
While Gov.-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger was drawing the media throngs in the Capitol today, his transition director, Rep. David Dreier, slipped away for a private meeting with Sen. Tom McClintock. The session, which lasted about 30 minutes in McClintock's third-floor Capitol office, was the first serious outreach from the Schwarzenegger operation to the man many Republican insiders at one time thought might cost Arnold the election. I asked Dreier if the Schwarzenegger team planned to work with McClintock, and he suggested that his presence at the senator's office was an indication that they would. McClintock told me afterword that the meeting was "cordial" and said he stands ready to help Schwarzenegger on the goal they share: reining in state spending and cutting taxes. Typical in a situation like this would be for Schwarzenegger to freeze McClintock out, to marginalize him and try to make an example of a guy who was not a "team player." While I doubt the relations between the two will ever be warm, perhaps today's meeting was a sign that Schwarzenegger understands that one of the best ways to neutralize your enemies is to bring them into your fold.
