The voters seem to be impressed. Most polls agree Mr Schwarzenegger has a lead of at least nine points. Some put it much higher, prompting reports that Democrats are in despair.

How could it have come to this? A state where 43% of registered voters describe themselves as Democrats while just 34% are Republicans has turned into a Republican shoo-in.

Part of the answer lies in the governor’s much-vaunted bipartisanship, his professed keenness to work across party lines and do what is best for the state. “I think the Democrat with the funny accent won the debate,” said Rob Long, author of Conversations With My Agent and scripts for the TV show Cheers, and also a friend of the governor.

Mr Schwarzenegger, much to the consternation of Democrats, has been adept at stealing the best lines from the centre.
