A comedy writer in LA has complained that the menagerie of contenders for Governor of California, including Arnold the Terminator, is so over-the-top it threatens his livelihood.
The movie industry in India has been called Bollywood, presumably in reference to "Bombay".
What we are seeing in the race for Governor of California is pure "Pollywood".
P.S. "Governor of California". Isn't that an oxymoron?
Even Arnold's campaign manager would agree:
"As Schwarzenegger campaign chief George Gorton told the Sacramento Bee's Dan Walters on Tuesday, "This is not a position election. This is a character election. People are looking at character here. They're looking for somebody who will go in and clean house."

"Pol" for "pol" as in this definition: pol n. Informal A politician. But, if a parrot joins the race, your second thought is better.  "Anna"???
