Luis:Would these be the same people who elected Gray Davis, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, etc?
Dio: Luis, they are the same people who recalled Davis and elected a Republican Gov.
Luis: And that was done over issues that had nothing to do with illegal immigrants, and a whole lot to do with The Terminator I, II, and III.
So, I don't seem to see where I am contorting your position. You said that Davis was recalled and a republican was elected "over issues that had nothing to do with illegal immigrants" but rather Arnold's action movies.
My original point was not why Arnold won, but that the people who elect Feinstein and Boxer are the same ones who wanted Davis out of office. And they didn't want Davis out of office so that they could have a movie star instead, but because he stepped way over the line offering licenses to illegals. Hence it is an important issue or Gray Davis would still be the Gov.
These people had the opportunity to elect a red meat conservative in McClintock...they did not.
They voted for The Terminator.
McClintock's support was less than Bustamante's.
My point.
The reason why Davis was booted out of office, and the reason why Arnold was elected are not even closely related.
As an aside, the same people who voted for Prop 187, and threw Davis out of office, have elected a strong majority liberal Congressional delegation.
