The millionaire congressman who largely funded the effort to recall Gov. Gray Davis abruptly pulled out of the race to replace him Thursday, a day after actor Arnold Schwarzenegger jumped in.

Republican Rep. Darrell Issa (news, bio, voting record), who made his fortune selling car alarms and pumped $1.7 million of his own money into the recall effort, announced he would not run in a tearful news conference.

Standing outside the Registrar of Voters office, Issa said instead of running in the Oct. 7 recall election, he will remain in Congress so he can work toward peace in the Middle East.

"I will continue with my wife's support to fund the effort to recall Gov. Gray Davis and when it's over we will return to Congress to support President Bush effort for Middle East peace," Issa said.

Issa was one of the first candidates to declare his intention to oust Davis.

No need for an election -- the overnights are in -- starring Jay Leno and Republican candidate for California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

And on the morning after the night before A.C. NIELSEN shows the TONIGHT SHOW duo captured nearly 1 out of 4 televisions turned on in the Los Angeles market [the nation's #2] in a ratings sensation!

A snapshot at country-wide results showed the hour at NBC averaged a 7.1 rating/17 share -- but far from actor Hugh Grant's 1995 Leno confessional of 10.2 rating, 26 share.

[Leno's first episode in '92 scored 13.8/38 and the night of CHEERS finale a year later poured 18.5/47]...


My candidate should have had this opportunity!!!
