Hawk,
I not only agree with you, but it is exactly what Arnold needs to do to combat the lack of experience issue.
If you heard Jesse Ventura speak about this yesterday, I think he was dead on about what's right and what's missing here.
The party problem can be the biggest handicap to overcome, IMHO.
Jesse sat in between the Reps. & Dems. Arnold will have to try to stear clear of party influences, even though they will have the final say. He will need a very strong team,...which is very possible...
