Arnold in Pleasanton

Arnold came to the Alameda County Fairgrounds in Pleasanton to talk about several propositions on the California ballot. Although the Presidential election was just a couple of days away, he said almost nothing about George Bush. Guy Houston, the state legislator from the San Ramon area, introduced Arnold. This time around, Maria Shriver did not make the trip. After talking about the need for a proposition that would limit lawsuits against small businessmen, Arnold shook hands with 50 or so well wishers in the crowd that were near the stage. And I was near the stage, so I once again got to shake the Terminator's hand. And its a really big hand!
