To compare Jeffords and Arnold is grossly unfair. Arnold has always supported Republican efforts in California. He has given money, time etc. Jeffords was a self interested jerk interested only in himself-he was never loyal to the party-really he was a political prostitute.

The difference between Jefford and Arnold, right now, given Arnold's own words is that Arnold hasn't quit the Republican party...yet.

But then, it isn't yet politically expedient for him to do so...yet.
