We knew he took a beating at the recent special election, but we didn’t think our man Arnold lost his marbles.

However, after reading this troubling report, we now hold some serious reservations. If there’s strategery in this appointment, we’re missing it.

Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has hired Susan Kennedy, a top aide to former Gov. Gray Davis, as his new chief of staff, Capitol sources in both major parties said. The chief of staff’s position is considered the most powerful administrative position in state government, with broad authority over policy-making and the sprawling bureaucracy.

So much for a Total Recall. That’s not what we had in mind.

Michelle Malkin has more.

No one can argue that we don’t support the guy. We made a great effort to help promote his reform initiatives.

But this kind of move suggests Arnold may be desperate to make friends with Democrats. And that’s paving the road to hell, so to speak.

What’s next? Clemency for Tookie?
