Arnold Schwarzenegger Watch: Unions Continue to Stalk the Governor

FAN INVOLVEMENT: Michael Lighty of Oakland, right, participates in a wave Tuesday protesting Gov. Schwarzenegger as he held a fundraiser at Angel Stadium. Fire, nurse and teacher union members offered anti-governor trading cards.

The Orange County Register has Unions boo the governor, Schwarzenegger’s Anaheim fundraiser attracts protesters of what they call anti-labor propositions.

It was a game within a game at Angel Stadium on Tuesday night, with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger holding a political fundraiser at the park while labor union members pulled out the stops to attack the governor – including satirical trading cards given to fans.

Needing to improve sliding approval ratings and to reverse voter disinterest for his three November ballot measures, Schwarzenegger showed up for campaign money – with Angel owner Arte Moreno and Emulex Chairman Paul Folino hosting the luxury-box fundraiser.

But as with other recent appearances in Orange County and throughout the state, the governor’s trip again provided a stage for labor unions upset with Schwarzenegger’s efforts to undermine them with his ballot measures.

Flap wonders who is running the Governor’s political organization.

Here are some recommendations.

And….. the Governor is not attending the Labor Day dedication of the new University of California, Merced.

Arnold, some reorganization of your political staff is in order and change your schedule.

QUICK!
