POWER BROKER$ dump ‘Sleazenegger’, RIDE ‘TEAM MARIA’ BANDWAGON

TERMINATED DEPT.: The half-dozen super-rich power brokers who originally coughed up megabuck$$ to fuel ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER’s triumphant run for California governor convened at a top secret dinner party in LA to chew over their bitter outrage at how the sleazy, serial sex-cheater has shamed wife MARIA SHRIVER – and every one of them sported a bracelet emblazoned with this fierce message for their former protege: TEAM MARIA!

Said a key political operative/adviser: “It was the death knell for Arnold’s political ambitions. "This dinner party signals that the movers and shakers will never again give him the backing to propel him into higher office – and it finally kills his political pipe dream of becoming the first foreign-born president of the United States.

"At best, he’s now just another washed-up actor struggling for a comeback!”

The source added that the custom-made bracelets were modeled after the famous LANCE ARMSTRONG yellow cancer wristbands, but quickly pooh-poohed those rumors of romance between the handsome cyclist and Maria – which sprang up when she famously tweeted that her “bro (Lance)...says he will help guide me in my life.”

Steer clear, sister – “60 Minutes” labeled Lance a jock pumped up on performance-enhancers. (Been there, done that, right?)
