The notion of talk being 'cheap' is appearing to be quite true:
Schwarzenegger talks tough on illegal immigrationAnyone can 'talk' about nadding up and doing something about illegal immigrants, but here's a suggestion Mr. Governor: put the California National Guard down here on the border. Belive it or not, as the Govenor of California you have the command and control of the state'sGov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said the nation's policy on preventing illegal immigration is too lax, telling a group of newspaper publishers the United States needs to "close the borders."
"Close the borders in California and all across Mexico and in the United States," Schwarzenegger said Tuesday at the annual meeting of the Newspaper Association of America. "Because I think it is just unfair to have all those people coming across, have the borders open the way it is, and have this kind of lax situation."
And while I'm sure there will be some that will whine, gnash their teeth, and froath from the mouth like a rabid gerbil, you'll have a LOT of people here in San Diego backing you on this.
Honestly Mr. Governor - what have you got to loose?? Considering that anyone left-of-center wants you out of office, nothing.

UPDATE: It would appear that the governor is saying that he spoke incorrectly due to his 'substandard English':
Schwarzenegger Sorry for Border CommentNo Governor, you need to stop listening to the people on your staff that are a biscuit away from having a stroke over the damage control.laming his faulty English, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Wednesday said he misspoke when he suggested that California's border with Mexico should be closed to help solve the nation's illegal immigration problem.
Schwarzenegger made the remark while speaking to newspaper editors and publishers Tuesday. He said he intended to say the border should be secured.
"Yesterday was a total screw-up in the words I used," the Republican said at a news conference. "Because instead of closing, I meant securing. I think maybe my English, I need to go back to school and study a little bit."
Stick to your guns - put the National Guard on the border and ignore the whinging/schreeching/yelling from your critics.
