 LOS ANGELES (AP) - Atoning for a year in which California voters turned against him, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger confessed to a litany of political sins last month but took solace in a few words, "I led from my heart." A lot of voters might wonder what that means.
After executing political pirouettes to the right and left, Schwarzenegger is struggling to re-establish the centrist appeal that helped elect him to office in 2003.
Last year, he pushed a slate of losing ballot measures that alienated independents and Democrats. Shortly after the election, he angered conservatives within his own party by naming a Democratic activist as his chief of staff and promoting a series of left-leaning policy initiatives.
