"Why are you a Democrat?" contest for the Democratic National Convention. Or if you're feeling a bit mischievous, there's always the "Why are you a Republican?" contest too.

This morning looks like concern troll heaven. We have oilman and Bushie supporter T. Boone Pickens on FOXNews Sunday to promote his alternative energy program, Cahleefornya's Governator Arnold Schwarzeneggar on This Week, reportedly to blast the man he endorsed in 2004, George W. Bush, for not taking Global Climate Change seriously, McCain surrogate Carly Fiorina on Meet the Press to tell us how McSame cares about the women and the economy--really, along with the ultimate concern troll, DLC chair Harold Ford, no doubt to assure us that Obama's tack to the center is EXACTLY the right tactic to win him votes from the MaverickMan.

ABC's "This Week" - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, R-Calif.

Can you help us out?
