Well, if Bustamante had dropped out, McClintock would have run unopposed.
The fact is, the race for governor in California was between Arnold and Bustamante.
You could just as easily say that the race was between Schwarzenegger and Gray Davis. It is highly unlikely that voters would have removed Davis, and replaced him with Bustamante.
Schwarzenegger has gone beyond mere toleration of abortion...he is enthusiastically endorsing the cloning of and killing of human beings, paid for by taxpayers, in the name of "science." It's quite Mengele-like.
