Beatty, Reiner to Oppose Schwarzenegger

[CatWoman]

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will share the special election spotlight this week with a couple of Hollywood counterparts from the opposite side of the political fence.

Warren Beatty and Rob Reiner are working with groups opposing the Republican governor's agenda to campaign against his initiatives. Both are actors and directors who have long supported Democratic causes.

Beatty, an outspoken critic of the governor, has taped a radio ad for the California Nurses Association that calls on voters to turn out next week and turn down Schwarzenegger's "year of reform" initiatives.

Reiner, meanwhile, will staff a phone bank in Los Angeles on Wednesday evening in an effort to convince voters to vote against Proposition 75, an initiative that seeks to reduce the money public employee labor unions can raise for political purposes.

2. Compare the films of those 3 chaps. Interesting differences.

Beatty & Reiner actually make films which inspire thought.

4. Good call havocmom

Perhaps the analogy can be expanded to define the differences between Dems & Repubs.

3. I'm just hoping lots of people actually get out and vote!

It sounds like many oppose Arnie's proposals, but you know HIS supporters will vote for sure! The problem is going to be getting the oposers off their butts and to the polls!
