"California Democrats lashed out at Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger during their annual convention Saturday, vowing to block his administration's agenda in an extraordinary reversal of good will toward the celebrity governor.

Schwarzenegger, whose push for controversial government reforms has enraged labor unions and other traditionally Democratic constituencies, came under withering attack as speaker after speaker chastised his leadership abilities.

"The governor has declared war on the state of California," Assemblywoman Judy Chu said. "He declared war on us and I declare war on him."

Some in the convention hall held signs reading "Stop Arnold's Arrogance!" while others carried bobblehead dolls depicting the Republican governor in a pink dress with an automatic rifle strapped to his shoulder. A video mocking Schwarzenegger's campaign fund-raising and fondness for cigars drew laughter from the crowd."
