    Despite the celebrity power of Arnold Schwarzenegger - the origins of the 2003 recall are hardly glamorous.

In this episode, we’ll walk through how the 2003 recall started in the first place - what political factors were stacked up against Gray Davis, and how a movie star became the GOP’s best chance for victory.
