Schwarzenegger: Staying Out of the Bushes

From the front page of The Times site:

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger of California said that he expected a prominent role at the Republican National Convention, but that afterwards he intends to keep some distance from President Bush.
This makes sense to some degree. Arnold, I suspect, considers himself a bigger star, in every respect, than Bush and Company. I'd like to think it was great principles keeping him away, but I really suspect it's his self importance.
