"What Did I Know And When Did I Know It?"
Whether or not the detectives exonerate their employer, Schwarzenegger isn't sure whether he'll release the results to State Attorney General Bill Lockyear, a democrat who has publicly criticized Schwarzenegger's "frat boy behavior" and may have designs on the governorship himself.
As much as I admire the parallels with Schwarzenegger's film "Total Recall," the "investigation" is a colossal waste of time. Lockyear knows that he can't charge Schwarzenegger with a crime because Schwarzenegger never committed malfeasance in office. The women involved haven't pressed charges themselves. And the governor-elect's promise to investigate his own actions is just plain silly.
Why would any woman cooperate with an investigator paid by Schwarzenegger who delivers results only to Schwarzenegger? Why would the public believe the results of such an inquiry? Why is Schwarzenegger investigating at all when he presumably knows where he—and his hands—have been?
Sadly, the only correct answer in California politics these days is, "Why ask why?"
