It Looks Like Arnold Would Not Sign a Bill Legalizing Assisted Suicide in California
These quotes from California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger about assisted suicide, according to Reuters:
"I personally think that this is a decision probably that should go to the people, like the death penalty, or other big issues. I don't think that we -- 120 legislators and I -- should make the decision.."
And:
"It's irrelevant what I think about this because I would never want to force my opinion on something like that."
California had an initiative to legalize euthanasia/assisted suicide in 1992. It began with 70% or so support in the polls and lost 54-46%.

Sometimes when you're the governor you have to force your opinion. It's why you get the big bucks. People elected you expecting that you would do that. Surely Arnie has figured that out by now.
