incumbent California governor, Gray<br />
Davis, being recalled in 2003, causing<br />
Arnold to enter and win the election.]<br />
On my first day as governor, as I<br />
walked into the office I said to myself,<br />
“OK, I won the election, now what the<br />
f@#k do I do?”<br />
There is no school to go to that<br />
teaches you how to be a governor.<br />
Sitting in that office and that building,<br />
with all its history, can be a little<br />
overwhelming.<br />
I come from a country where<br />
everyone had health care, so<br />
California having 8 million people<br />
who were uninsured was totally<br />
unacceptable to me.<br />
The polls do not decide anything. As<br />
an athlete, I know all about peaking.<br />
An athlete can be out of shape in<br />
the off-season, but as contest day<br />
approaches, he plans to peak on that<br />
day. So I don’t worry about the scoring<br />
on days when there is no contest.<br />
