Overview

Since his landslide reelection in a state dominated by Democrats, California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has arguably become the nation's most successful Republican politician. His near-universal name recognition and status as governor of the nation's most populous state have placed Schwarzenegger at the forefront of such key issues as health care, environmental protection, and immigration. Combining liberal stands on social and environmental issues with conservative pro-business policies, Schwarzenegger has found favor with Republicans, Democrats, and independent voters, whose support has been critical to his success. PARTY OF ONE goes beyond a portrait of a political celebrity. ...

Overview

Since his landslide reelection in a state dominated by Democrats, California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has arguably become the nation's most successful Republican politician. His near-universal name recognition and status as governor of the nation's most populous state have placed Schwarzenegger at the forefront of such key issues as health care, environmental protection, and immigration. Combining liberal stands on social and environmental issues with conservative pro-business policies, Schwarzenegger has found favor with Republicans, Democrats, and independent voters, whose support has been critical to his success. PARTY OF ONE goes beyond a portrait of a political celebrity. Detailing Schwarzenegger's gambits, missteps, and achievements on a range of issues, it suggests that the "governator" represents the future of American politics, in which practical results will mean more to voters than partisan identity.

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
By any standard, Arnold Schwarzenegger's progression from champion bodybuilder to action film star to California governor is singular. Sacramento Bee columnist Daniel Weintraub, however, is less concerned with Arnold's muscular metamorphoses than his unique ability to transcend traditional California political divisions. Weintraub's Party of One utilizes numerous exclusive interviews with Schwarzenegger to explain how the Republican leader of our most populous state governs amid a predominantly Democrat constituency. Up-close analysis of a major American politician.
