California Insider
A Weblog by
Sacramento Bee Columnist Daniel Weintraub

What is he?
Still nothing official, but it appears that Schwarzenegger will jet to Columbus, Ohio on Friday to campaign for Bush, then fly back Friday night in time to campaign Saturday for California candidates and on ballot measures he favors and opposes. Schwarzenegger has one of his famous bus trips scheduled to begin in San Diego Saturday morning and conclude that evening at a Republican Party rally in Bakersfield.

It's interesting to watch the heat Schwarzenegger is taking as a Republican governor campaigning (barely) for a Republican president. Some people seem to think that being a moderate or centrist Republican means you are actually a Democrat or non-partisan. Schwarzenegger apparently thinks otherwise. He has always been a Republican. He ran for office as a Republican. He has governed as a (centrist) Republican. He spoke in prime time at the Republican National Convention about what it means to be a Republican.

Get it? He's a Republican. He's a Republican who is trying to move his party to the left on social issues (abortion, gays) and to the center on the environment. But as far as I can tell, he is still very much a Republican on foreign policy and economic issues. Democrats who think he is secretly one of them are fooling themselves.
