Why Is Schwarzenegger an excellent politician?

Because he's not afraid to compare politicians to penguins, and issue a truly strange and mysterious proclamation about them. While making a very good point about how to market environmentally-friendly cars to U.S. citizens.

"Your political base will melt away as surely as the polar ice caps -- I can guarantee you of that," Schwarzenegger said. "You will become a political penguin on a smaller and smaller ice floe, drifting out to sea. Goodbye, my little friend."

It's probably too bad for the GOP that Schwarzenegger doesn't embrace more of the "moral" conservative party platform that's big at the moment. They'd be in a much bigger hurry to support him and have pictures taken with him to support their own campaigns.
