"One thing I'd like to point out to people is simply this: having a Republican, even a RINO, in office in California will get the populace used to voting Republican again.

Just suppose, for the sake of argument, that he pulls a Jeffords when he gets elected? Seems like a big possibility given his cozyness with the Kennedys.

Seems to me, if he was going to switch parties, he'd do it now.

He'd be at 90%.

He would definitely be elected if he was a Dem-he would turn now if he planned to. Arnold has been a loyal Repub-supported more than a few Repubs financially. Give him a break.

Hell, he doesn't even need to pull a Jeffords. George Ryan (RINO-IL) is STILL a "lifelong Republican", even though his best friend are Fidel Castro, Richie Daley, and the kooky green party guys who whine about the "racist" death penalty. Having Lyin' Ryan in office really "inspired" Illinoisians to vote Republican, didn't it?

Following the logic of Arinold supporters, NJ, NY, MA, TN, AZ, etc. should all be fertile grounds for Republicans now as well....yet they all went solid 'RAT after getting "leadershp" from a corrupt RINO adminstration. Hmmm.
