Moderates after my heart

Arnold Schwarzenegger urges GOP to move beyond ideology - Los Angeles Times

Great sense of humor:

The governor deflected a question about whether McCain had displayed bad judgment in selecting Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska as his running mate.

He also said that California First Lady Maria Shriver, a Democrat and a member of the Kennedy family, had been running around their house since Tuesday with a cardboard cutout of President-elect Barack Obama, gloating over his victory.

Schwarzenegger, who joked about Obama's "scrawny" physique while campaigning with McCain, said he was "proud" to see the American people elect their first African American president.

"I was touched by it," he said. "Democrats and Republicans should do everything they can to help this man and his administration to be successful."

But he said rumors that he would leave his post as governor to work in the Obama administration were not valid.
