But Schwarzenegger is running the most issues-light and personality-heavy campaign he can get away with. True, he deserves to lose just for being so dismissive of real issues. Also true, Democrats should try to resist the temptation to let Schwarzenegger turn the debate to his strength. But Schwarzenegger's gigantic personality outshines policy debates. And besides, the guy's taking a well respected political container (Personal Character) and filling it with fiction (his Hollywood persona). Lying about what you're centering your campaign on is really wrong. If that tactic can be turned against Schwarzenegger by exposing the fiction as fiction, then he falls and leaves California to Carey.

California belongs to Carey, we're just haggling over the governorship.
