Schwarzenegger to run for governor

DECLARING his intention to run against incumbent Gray Davis for the office of governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger said he wasn’t afraid of attacks sure to come from Democrats and conservative Republicans alike.

The Terminator star, 56, made his announcement on a TV chat show, telling host Jay Leno it was the toughest decision he’d made since opting for a bikini wax in 1978.

“The politicians are fiddling, fumbling and failing,” he said. “The man that is failing the people more than anyone is Gray Davis. He is failing them terribly, and this is why he needs to be recalled and this is why I am going to run for governor.”
