Arnold: The Homeless Governor

Gov. Arnold is homeless in Sacramento. He's been staying at the Presidential suite at the Hyatt for $6,000 a month, paid for by campaign funds. No more. The law limits him using such funds to a year after election, and that's now over. So where does he go? What does he envision in a Governor's home?

"This is California, and we should have a really fantastic place where we can entertain world leaders," Mr. Schwarzenegger said in a recent interview, describing imaginary grounds with a fountain, a circular driveway and hedgerows.

"It should have a room for dining and dancing and a place for after dinner,'' he said. "We could invite world leaders like the chancellor of Germany or the prime minister of South Africa."

To be fair, the people of California probably wouldn't foot the bill, private donations take care of it. Still, with his state in such a fiscal crisis, perhaps he should keep these dreams to himself.
