On the campaign trail, traditionally, making any personal statement about your opponent is considered really, really bad form. More people will lose respect for you and not vote for you, than will be persuaded to vote for you.

So today they report that Arnie said on talk radio:

It's like one newspaper pointed out, Bustamante is Gray Davis with a receding hairline and a mustache. It's the same person. Same philosophy.

It's pretty minor, but Arnie just put down his opponents' looks. I'm guessing he can't get away with that any more than any other pol can. I would smack his wrist and tell him, bad candidate, no power bar today.
