Wall Street likes Arnold because he pushed for massive fiscally irresponsible bonds. California gets bad interest rates because of its credit rating, so it was great for Wall Street. In fact, Wall Street had given Arnold huge amounts of money in the campaign (it was a Proposition). Some other bond Proposition got passed at the same time. A total of $27 billion was borrowed. I voted against them. Funny how the only fiscally responsible people are liberals like me.

Another thing is Arnold just their favorite guy, even more so than Owens? The reason is that for governors with the same grade, they don't seem to be in any particular order, so maybe they're still ranked.

From the comments I've heard around this forum, I'd say most of you wouldn't agree with the Pataki "B" rating.


I certainly wouldn't give him anything above a B- at best.

Of course, the WSJ is based in NY, so they don't want Pataki coming down & shutting down the paper, I suppose... Wink

How does someone with a 34% approval rating get a B???

He's not Spitzer.
Anyone who enforces the law with Wall St. will get a sh**tty grade.
