Well-written, reasonable post. EXCEPT: why do you think that the Media will treat AAAAAhhhhhnold well, if he is elected?

"They won't dare attack him," you say.

Wanna bet?

The attack they had planned was to portray him as a right-wing nut. Rush Limbaugh gelded that one when he called him a RINO. Pundits from both ends of the political spectrum are now saying "Limbaugh says he isn't a conservative". So much for calling him a right-winger.

They can't call him pro-life; he isn't. Nor can they call him anti-gay. Partying? So what if he was chasing skirts and doing drugs in his younger days? He's not claiming to be a pure-as-the-driven-snow-conservative. The only thing they have is his support of Prop. 187, but it's kinda silly to go after an immigrant on the issue. He's a hard target!
