One named woman they did NOT interview, but got stories from her friends. The Schwarzenegger campaign actually told us early on stories like this would be coming, so it is not unexpected...what's unexpected is the low levels of journalism to which the Times has sunk.

That this surprises anyone is astounding. Um, we’ve known that Arnold was womanizing scum since before he got into the race.

This distinction is especially important when the source of the hearsay/knowledge is biased. Almost everything we've heard to date about Arnold's alleged womanizing - including the latest <i>Monopoly</i> hit piece - has come from the same Busta McDavis supporters who have long opposed Arnold for unrelated political reasons, namely that he is a liberal RINO, a pawn of the evil right wing of the Republican Party, or both.

Known. Arnold admitted it before, and just recently owned up to it again.

Known.

An article, a lot of which is rehashed from the Premier Mag hit piece, like this shouldn't take 7 weeks. And if it was in the interest of the "truth", don't you think releasing a cutdown piece 3-4 weeks ago would have allowed more "victims" to come forward and help drive the issue forward. Finally, the style of this piece, complete with vulgar details like "Have you ever had a man slide his tongue in your [anus]?" reaks of a political hit piece. I cannot remember a single article on Pres. Clinton, prior to the release of the congressional report, that went into such graphic detail.

I am surprised that the Times drops the story today (or yesterday, I'm confused). I really expected a NEW revelation at the last minute. Wonder if there's something for the weekend and this is just softening us up. Clam,

This has been known from day one. Only the bandwagon jumpers stupidly ignored it like Ostriches, thinking this wouldn't happen. It has. This is going to be the only story running from now until election day. The GOP establishment already destroyed McClintock's chances. If this recall goes down in flames because of this, the bandwagon jumpers are going to have A LOT of explaining to do. Clam is correct.

Instead of pushing that bullshit argument about Arnold being a liberal and Tom being The Most Qualified Candidate In The Race, why weren't you RealRepublicans pushing this issue instead?

C'mon.. everyone writing on this blog has to be familiar with Google.com. I did a few searches and was blown away. There's even more garbage in the pipeline. Dunno if it will come out or not. Barring further bombshell revelations, I believe that Arnold (and the recall) will weather the storm. We brought this up until our faces turned blue.
