California Gov. Gray Davis attacked Arnold Schwarzenegger for announcing his candidacy on the "Tonight Show," but now it turns out that the hypocritical guv secretly called Jay Leno and asked to appear on the program himself.

"The governor was turned down - and he is not happy about it," the New York Post's Page Six column quotes an insider as saying.

Gee, why wouldn't Leno want such a wooden, robot-like dullard for a guest?

Meanwhile, Page Six has new details about Arianna Huffington's attempt to steal Schwarzenegger's spotlight. It says she waited hours in her car outside the Los Angeles County registrar's office and then barged into the media hubbub when the Terminator arrived to file his papers. Her handler says she waited only 15 minutes to ambush Arnie.

Arianna Huffington in an automobile, after all her railing against the evils of such conveniences? Someone needs to show her the nearest bus stop.

Arianna Huffington in an automobile, after all her railing against the evils of such conveniences? Someone needs to show her the nearest bus stop.

And an eight-cylinder Town Car, by her own admission on Hannity yesterday. I guess she just doesn't like how SUVs are shaped, or something.

Arianna Huffington ... Someone needs to show her the nearest bus stop

I'll see your "bus stop" and raise you an "open elevator shaft."

Not to mention, Davis had his 'turn'.

Davis has proven himself to be California's biggest elected problem. . .P>. . . time to spotlight those who may prove to be the solution.

I think the Arnold/Arianna/microphones thing happened around 10am. She probably wasn't camped out in their parking lot for "hours."

She had the air conditioning running the whole time, and a pile of cigarette butts littered the ground underneath her window.

Arianna Huffington...The woman who caused her husband to turn homosexual.

If one had to listen to Arianna day in and day out...Lord only knows what would happen....I suggest we send Arianna to Iraq as the secret WMD.

[My2Cents]

Listening to Arianna makes my ears bleed.

Along with Susan Estrich. Talk about fingernails on a blackboard.

Was he at the Phillies Game the other night?

Sitting still with the air conditioning running?! Well, that alters her car's MPG rating to - 0 . That simply will not do. How can such an environmental crusader own a car that operates at 0 MPG?

Susan Estrich makes me want to jump off the nearest cliff.

There was a very good article yesterday written by George Will which he mocked Arianna's recent transformation from conservative to liberal. This is the excerpt and is a true classic.

"In the 1950s, when Doris Day, prim and perky and squeaky clean, was starring in romantic comedies, the mordant Oscar Levant said, "I knew Doris Day before she was a virgin." Washington knew Arianna Huffington before she was a left-wing populist.

But in politics as in other fields of fashion, standards of chic change, and it is as a Huey Long from the upper crust that millionaire Huffington is seeking to make of herself a gift, as governor, to California's downtrodden. Can it be just eight years ago that she was living in Washington, toiling to establish a salon for like-minded surfers on the rising -- or so she thought -- wave of Newt Gingrich's brand of conservatism? "Why Newt Must Run," she wrote in the Nov. 27, 1995, Weekly Standard, urging a presidential candidacy."

Well put.
