Lastly, I think Tom makes some good points and I think what he says is worthy of discussion. I do believe his behavior during the last Gov. election does exclude him from any consideration for a job in Government where the people have to elect him. I think he betrayed us at our expense last election.

You were doing so great until ya unleashed that betrayal beanball crack. ;-)
The guy has more time in state battling for California and his constituents than aRnie has primping for the media during his illustrious career.
The fact that you still begrudge Tom feeling like he was the best man for the job and seeking the Gubinorship is a bit befuddling.
Oh, well. I'll put it down as progress anyway. :)
There are politicians who's lust for personal ambition exceeds what is good for the people.
What Tom McClintock put on display here in the CA election for Gov showed he has major ambitions that are personal at everyone else's expense. In addition, he has a low likability problem.
If Tom runs for major state offices, he all but hands the elections to Democrats IMO.
At this point, even if someone waved a magic wand and made him somehow electable, he is still undependable as a conservative team player.
We need to go back to the barrel and get better candidates.
That aside, if he brings up and issue and it gets discussed, GOOD!
