Schwarzenegger's re - election chances up
The Argus ^ | Jan. 13, 2005 | Steve Geissinger

Posted on 01/13/2006 4:35:43 PM PST by FairOpinion

A recent poll shows the born-again "moderate" Republican governor has gained back some popularity, especially in the Bay Area, and is now in a dead heat with Democratic competitors.

"Our survey demonstrates that Schwarzenegger's retreat from the more conservative rhetoric and agenda he brandished during the latter part of 2005 has paid off among middle-of-the road voters," said Melinda Jackson, director of the Survey and Policy Research Institute at San Jose State University.

The governor's job performance rating among voters in a Democrat-leaning state has climbed from 36 percent positive and 53 percent negative in September, to 40 percent positive and 51 percent negative this month.

Join me in a dream of a California whose government isn't characterized by political hacks and cronies and relatives--an administration that doesn't make its decisions based on political expediency but on moral truth. Together, let us find men to match our mountains. We can have a government administered by men and women who are appointed on the basis of ability and dedication--not as a reward for political favors. If we must have a double standard of morality, then let it be one, which demands more of those in government, not less.
— Ronald Reagan, 1966

Wow. I hadn't caught that one. The poster posted this:

"The socialist democraps are for the most part more conservative than the so called "moderate republicans"

Glad you caught that. What a lie. Socialist Democrats are the Pelosis, the Kennedys, the Schumers, ad nauseum, of the Democrat party. Not just in CA, either.

But I'm not about to go for this "getting along" thing yet on this board

Fortunately for the home town crowd is doesn't matter since only California residents can vote in California.

Don't get me wrong. I appreciate the visits. I enjoy the show.

As is obviated by this thread there is a wide difference between Republicans, inside or outside California, and conservatives.

AND there you go again, trying the same old "divide" stuff. I'm not a Rino nor a moderate Republican. Nor am I socialist democrat. If you ask others in this thread if they are either of the above "categories" -- would you accept their answers, or just keep posting this type of attention diverting and divisionary tactic? But you continue to assert that YOU are what you say you are, according none other than those who post in lockstep with you, and demand that it is a "truism".

Yes, right -- I understand you saying that an actual "conservative party" should be begun. Just like the "independents" the "green party", the "constitutionalist party". These parties exist. And as you post, it would make sense for you to join an existing party -- say, the Constitutionalist Party, to achieve your goals. And it would save "reinventing the wheel", no?

Now. In California, as large as CA is, tell me what the status of your new party is, pls. And has Tom McClintock agreed to run on your new party "group name"?

Well Abraham Lincoln was thinking of your mindset when he said; "There are some people who just can't get it together under any circumstances! Their minds are blown like an old 357 Chevy and their clutches cannot grasp the core principles of Republicanism, or Conservatism, or stop worshipping at the alter of slavish, shallow celebrity bootlicking. They would only redeem themselves to re-align their political beliefs and pattern them after the RIGHTEOUS CONSERVATIVES RESIDING ON FREEREPUBLIC.COM!"

You wouldn't know it if it smacked you upside your cranium. Adios, sugar.

Coming from you, that's laughable. That's what you do best -- taunt and smack anyone you disagree with upside their cyber cranium. Oh, how clever.

LOL, I got some ilk FRmail accidently once. Whadda hoot!

I don't get or send much FRmail. But I have received, in past, those "accidental" or "misdirected" emails. If its intentional, it's usually just to start a "buzz" going, to play out in cyber. I saw those, in past, as intentional "email" taunts. But then the accidental ones. That's another story. And sometimes even more interesting, is trying to fathom which it is. Off to tasks. C U later, 68 grunt.

Alas, I posted straight out of Economics, and they refuse to actually discuss the point. Instead, some are doing the usual of switching subjects, etc. and while pretending to "represent" CA voters. Yes, there's been a problem in FR for quite some time. And only the more obvious get banned, censored, and kicked out.

Clever is, as clever does...

Yes. You are quite clever. I posted a response to your original "economics" post, two actually. Your response to my first post was relatively non-responsive, changing the context, and you didn't bother to repond to the second, responding to more "economics". So, who is it who refuses to discuss things?

By the way, you also refused to answer my other direct question (twice!), while spewing vile unfounded slurs. Censoring? Perhaps you should look in the mirror and consider it.

I'm not a Rino nor a moderate Republican.

The only reference published was: Republican. The implied, but until now not published reference, was: out-of-state, Republican troll.

I understand you saying that an actual "conservative party" should be begun

Again never mentioned. What was published:

1) drive the political whores out of the GACOP leadership and 2) cause either the conversion or downfall of Schwarzenegger, clearly a liberal by any traditional standards.

Clearly an attempt to remove the cancer from the body politic, not an attempt to trade it in for a new model.

Like many on the California Topic, I am a registered Republican. Unlike the partisan trolls who visit frequently, I consciously attempt to put principles before party. Similar to partisans who vow never to vote for a Democrat, I try never to vote for a liberal.

Well I see you and Alia don't agree on Bustamante!

"I don't think that was a overly "genuine" risk. Bustamante cooked his own goose -- on a nationwide level, already with his "past assertions and affiliations"."(Alia)

"His people were never so special that he should have risk giving us Bustamante."(A CA Guy)

Why do you insist on retaining such a diehard belief in that bogus assertion? He was never gonna win squat!!!

Don't even try to answer that, because I already have heard you conclusion jumping ad nauseum!!!
