I hope his backers/supporters feel great about who they supported; total fraud. I've been embarassed to have him as our governor and even more so now.

Is he a fraud in this sense, though? I mean, before the election the LA Times hit with that piece about his behavior on movie sets -- where he asked a woman if he ever had a man slide his tongue up her ass, among other niceties -- and he basically said, "Oh, yeah, sorry, my bad." Combine that with the softcore porn interviews he used to do and his, uh, patriarchal upbringing, and I can't think of a reason in the world any of this should be surprising. I'm sure 90 percent of the people who voted for him (myself among them) would have answered "yes" to a poll question of whether he had ever cheated on Maria.

I'm sure most people figured out that he cheated on his wife. But having a kid with your housekeeper and than insisting on keeping him around was just being deliberately awkward about it.

Arnie must miss the good ol' days:

And an excellent account from a former LA Times investigative journalist. I have very little sympathy for Maria; she knew the man she married. Don't know if she thought she could change him, but she knew.

A son fathered by Arnold Schwarzenegger with his housekeeper was born less than a week after Maria Shriver gave birth to another Schwarzenegger son, according to birth records obtained Wednesday by CNN.

I find it hard to believe the tabloids didn't have this. Maybe Arnold bought them off by dropping dimes on some of his celebrity friends.

Let's see, who was he running against again?

Arianna Huffington? Gary Coleman? Some porn actress?

And Georgy Russell, who sold thongs with her campaign emblem on them (it?). I voted for her since I figured she knew how to get to the bottom of things.

Pretty funny look inside Arnold's house. Apparently the housekeeper wasn't the greatest cook:

“To make it up to you, the governor would like to invite you and your wife to his home tonight to watch the Golden Globes. Say seven sharp?”

My wife and I dressed in our best. I wore the black suit. She wore pearls. But when we walked into the foyer of his mansion, Maria Shriver was wandering the marble halls in her sweat pants.

The housekeeper, reported to be Mildred Baena , whom I recognized this week from the tabloid photographs, had a buffet laid out of warmed-over tacquitos, nachos and hot dogs.

This was no Hollywood party. This was watching TV with the Schwarzeneggers!

The governor gave me a Cuban cigar (considered illegal contraband under the Trading with the Enemy Act). He poured me Scotch. And then we sat down with the children to watch the red carpet show. Baena sat behind us on a stool at the counter. My wife sat stiffly next to me.

On the television, a starlet pranced down the carpet. The bottom half of her dress looked like the bottom half of an ostrich. The top of the dress was nothing more than two straps criss-crossing her breasts. Schwarzenegger, fresh off his groping scandal -- and with an East Coast reporter sitting in his living room no less -- barked out: “Look at her! Some queer told her she looks good in that but her t--s look like s--t!”

That was Schwarzenegger in a snapshot. Funny. Assured. Raunchy. Self-destructive. Not only did he have a reporter mingling with his family, he had his nanny/mistress.

Does the fact that the maid in question doesn't look like Paz Vega or Sofia Vergara alter (even slightly) their opinion about what Arnold did?

Oh yes.
I have never understood how people who either, any or all rich, powerful and good-looking can have affairs with a homely second. See Bill Clinton, Tiger Woods and now Arnold.

Agree on Clinton. Tiger's conquests ranged from waitresses to porn stars to Rachel Uchitel, who is just damn hot. Not sure I put him in that category.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure this wasn't the only time Arnold stepped out on Maria, but one might get the sense that this was more for convenience than anything else. That's not defending him. But he seems like slightly less of a scumbag, and I think the same was the case for Clinton.

I also wonder if we're going to be hearing about more Arnold mistresses. If he goes another week without a revelation, he's probably safe.

Agreed on Uchitel, but the rest - including the porn star - left A LOT to be desired.
