Is Arnold smart, or what? :>) Schwarzenegger hires Warren Buffett as campaign adviser Wednesday, August 13, 2003 ©2003 Associated Press URL: sfgate.com (08-13) 12:10 PDT LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Arnold Schwarzenegger has hired Warren Buffett as his senior financial and economic adviser, his campaign announced Wednesday. Buffett is a billionaire investor legendary for his financial prowess. The chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. is also a Democrat, said Schwarzenegger spokesman Sean Walsh. "What he will be doing is assembling other prominent business leaders and economists and setting up a team to address the issues facing California," Walsh said. "When people are talking about our team and we're saying it's going to reflect the breadth and diversity across the political and business and ethnic segments, this is, I think, a prime example of that," he said. "I have known Arnold for years and know he'll be a great governor. It is critical to the rest of the nation that California's economic crisis be solved, and I think Arnold will get that job done," Buffett said in a statement.
