Solid convictions? Really! About homosexuals, about gun control, about the welfare state? I'm really open to possibilities, but his quotable moments have the appearance of concrete shoes in a swim meet. married to a Kennedy for god's sake! Someone said he is more of a Demoncat than Jow lieberman & Joe is more of a Repub than Ahnold. He sounds like a political dolt. Folks who run for high office normally have taken some care not to go around sounding so stupid-but then like you said, they elected the fool in California & then there are the 42% who blessed us with Klintoon.

As I said earlier, on other threads, I fear he will self-destruct or, if elected he will destroy Califonia-whats left from Gray-out. Whomever is elected, it will be with a minority of the voters ( likely ) & that person will be smeared by the final collapse.

Yes, solid convictions.
As in: he takes a position and he stands by it.

He doesn't flip-flop and backpeddle like Simon did.
People respect that.

Lets say you are correct about the voters just disappearing back into the woods.
That is a very good possibility, and if that happens, then Bustamante will surely win, since Simon and McClintock would need to combine their votes to win.

Like I've said before, I would consider supporting McClintock again if Simon dropped out.

But if McClintock drops out, I will not support a two-time loser like Simon.

I am even LESS inclined to support Simon this time around, because I just don't need the grief of "yet another election overturned by the Republicans" that the Democrats will make as their mantra to oppose Bush in 2004.
