If the price of courting the Hispanic vote is abandoning conservative values, then I heartily reject this, come what may.

A move to the left would be both dangerous AND disastrous.

Educating the Public about what it our Founding Fathers believed in, and what a "Constitutional Republic" is supposed to be, as well as educating the public about the ACTUAL language of the Bill of Rights would move some on the left to the right! THAT is the right strategy to take in this political mess the lefty loonies have created.

Look at the alternative...the Democratic Party. Could you vote for them in protest?

Didn't think so.

Great term, RINOld. I think I will call him aRINOld from how on...

I agree with the folks who think that by moving left to get a sliver of the wacko vote, the GOP will lose the Lion's Share of pro-life social conservatives who handed GWB this victory.

Poor Arnie, his lack of prinicples are showing, AGAIN.

Arnie, Bush won because he went to the RIGHT. People are sickened by LEFTISTS like YOU who sympathize with homos and are pro choice - all qualities you HAVE. Arnie, YOU are a loser. You should be honest and just become a DEMONcrat rather than parading around as a Republican.

I didn't stand out in the cold and hold signs and have passing motorists throw cups and cans at us, nor send money to Republican candidates, including Pres.Bush, nor talk my head off trying to convince leftist that there is a better way so we can move the country left. This country is so far left now from the past 45 years of liberal and judicial tyranny that we will need a bulldozer just to move it a little to the right. No one in the Republican party should be talking about moving left or making nice-nice with prosocialist, procommunists, leftist, democrats before we right the ship that is listing to the left. But I'm not bitter.

On the other hand, I don't think George Bush got any of his votes from liberals, and he didn't get any of his votes from people who were afraid that they had to pick Bush because Kerry wasn't going to increase the size of government fast enough for them.

So there probably are 51% conservative people out there. No point moving to the left. Arnold just wants to do this because he knows he's not popular with conservatives.

Another good reason why a foreigner should not be President -- or, actually, any government job, but I suppose we're past that point by now.

Roy Moore for President. It's really not a bad idea. Here's a man who will make personal sacrifices for a principle. Don't we need people exactly like that?

I always vote for the most conservative politician, regardless of party affiliation (although, I have made mistakes). Thus, I would almost certainly never vote for a Democrat. Your argument is beginning to fray at the edges.

BTW, it's "the Democrat Party".

And some people are so stupid as to want to change the Constitution for this guy's sake.

Now you couldn't be talking about the "wonderful, exciting, courageous" U.S. senior senator from UT, could you?

I don't think George Bush got any of his votes from liberals....

Wrong, didn't Arlen and his two ME women colleagues say they voted for BushCheney?

"I would like the Republican Party to cross this line, move a little further left and place more weight on the centre," he was quoted as saying.

How about me crossing a line and scoring with Maria?

Figures. He's a RINO married to a Kennedy. It was only a matter of time before the horns popped out of his head, starting with breaking his promise regarding drivers licenses for illegals.

I used to respect the man to whom you allude; I'm not sure what the heck happened to him. Maybe just age.

Talk is cheap. Bush's actual record (the only thing that really matters) speaks volumes. Here is the latest update on Dubya's spendthrift record.

And NO WE WILL NOT CHANGE THE U.S. Constitution so you can run for the White House!

Fortunately, Hamilton et al. made it nearly impossible to accommodate a politician born outside the country after 1789.

Go left

I think I speak for the vast majority of Republicans when I say to Arnold:

Go F--- yourself, Governor!

And I also hereby publicly admit that I was wrong to support Arnold's candidacy here on this forum over McClintock. Please forgive me.
