Arnold's letting himself go


And we're not (just) talking about his midsection.

Though still in a comfortable zone for an incumbent, Schwarzenegger's approval rating has declined ten percent over the last year.

From Reuters:
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (news - web sites)'s job approval rating remains high, but his support has slipped from the lofty levels during his first year in office, according to a poll released on Wednesday.[...]

The sliding job performance rating reflects an increasingly negative view among Democrats and independents of the Republican governor. By contrast, he retains overwhelming support from Republicans, according to the poll.


This is great news: Democrats (including all of the "Oh, he's such an effective governor" people, some of whom are friends of mine but all of whom annoy the crap out of me every time they say that) are starting to realize that this guy isn't our guy.

I think this is momentum. I like it.
