if i remember correctly, he was elected when the gov at the time was recalled in an election, he didn't really have an agenda/platform. but i do remember his taking on the unions and the democratic legislation with some sort of attempt at legislation that failed.
i have always admired him too, i appreciate the fact that as an out of the ordinary bodybuilder with an accent, he succeeded wildy in his personal endeavors- against all odds. but as a politician, i can't think of anything he pushed through or accomplished. now he's kind of a metaphor for everything wrong in cali politics/government.
