I found this:
Recreational angler groups support Arnold Schwarzenegger for governor:
SAN DIEGO - The California Sportfishing Coalition (CSC), a political action and fundraising arm of the fishing industry, has thrown its support in the upcoming recall election to actor and Republican candidate Arnold Schwarzenegger, who holds a large lead among all canidates, according to most polls. Bob Fletcher, president of the Sportfishing Association of California and CSC Director said in a press release issued Monday: "Between increased fees and disappearing programs, recreational anglers have suffered for too long under the Davis Administration; it is clearly time for a change. We need a governor who understands California anglers and Arnold Schwarzenegger is that person." CSC Director Tom Raftican added, "Arnold Schwarzenegger has promised to audit state government and that audit should start with the Department of Fish and Game. California anglers have been pouring tens of millions of dollars a year into the Department, we have not got our money's workth and its about itme we saw how it has been spent." Said Schwarzenegger, "Recreational angling is part of the quality of life for millions of Californians. I look forward to working closely with California anglers to protect our environment and maintain fishing access from Crescent City to San Diego."
There was also a flyer inserted in the paper that read:
CSC URGES ALL ANGLERS TO VOTE SCHWARZENEGGER FOR GOVERNOR!!
Gubernatorial candidate Arnold Schwarzenegger believes that, "A healthy sportfishing industry is in the best economic interest of California."
Arnold went on to say that, "Recreational angling has traditionally been part of the quality of life for millions of Californians, and as long as scientific measurements of fish populations show surpluses available for harvest, California anglers should be allowed the opportunity to beout on the water angling for those fish!"

The problem is, that is too GENERAL of a statement, your comment might not be wrong, because I'm no fan of Davis either. So lets say that Davis is anti-fishing, so all Democrats are like that. Does that mean that Arnold will be anti environment and will let big polluters regulate themselves, just because that is what George Bush does? Should we assume that all Republicans are like this? Should we call of them bigots because Rush Limbaugh and Trent Lott of bigots? The blanket statements are bad news. There are bad apples in both parties. I didn't even know that Arnold likes to fish! I've never heard this before! I'm not a big fan of any of these guys, but I would always support Arnold IF he rolls back the car tax. Terry Kratzer
