There have been plenty of reactions from the Twitterverse to Arnold Schwarzenegger's shocking admission on Tuesday that he fathered a love child with a longtime housekeeper and kept it a secret for more than a decade.
Ex-Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm (@GovGranholm), a Democrat, scolded Schwarzenegger on behalf of all governors, particularly females:
Another guy guv admits 2 cheating on his wife. Maybe we need more women governors. Guys: keep ur pants zipped, for Pete's sake.
Shriver and Schwarzenegger's 17-year-old son Patrick (@PSchwarzenegger) tweeted this: "Some days you feel like sh*t, some days you want to quit and just be normal for a bit, yet [I] love my family till death do us apart."
Here are a few selected others from my Twitter stream:

>> @franklinavenue Don't forget, besides the housekeeper, Arnold also spent the last 8 years screwing California.
>> @AnnCoulter It's official: Arnold's a Kennedy.
>> @felixsalmon If Arnie's affair had been public in 2003, California's deficit would be half as bad today.
>> @BorowitzReport I worry that the news about the #IMF guy & Arnold is making us forget how hilarious Bin Laden's porn is.
>> @JennyJohnsonHi5 FYI The plot of 'The Terminator' was Arnold Schwarzenegger going back in time to kill a woman so her baby would never be born.
>> @justus4all Looks like #Arnold was #pumping more than just iron.
