I'm not quite sure, but I wonder if Tom is being served very well here, really.
He's not running against Arnold, he's running WITH him, isn't he?

An EXCELLENT point! Arnold and Tom let bygones be bygones, and joined forces: Arnold campaigned for McClintock for his re-election, raising him lots of much needed funds, McClintock campaigned with Arnold for the reform propositions and now he is running for Lt. Governor, where he only has a chance if Arnold gets re-elected.
But remember, the same people who are now proclaiming that McC is eligible for sainthood and should run for governor, were saying nastier things about him, than any of the rest of us put together, ever, accusing him of being bought, because he suggested that the reform propositions were good for CA. None of us ever questioned his integrity, only his electability or judgment.
This just shows again, that some people don't care about Tom McClintock, they are just trying to use him to split the conservative base, to help a Dem get elected governor.
In California, the Governor and Lieutenant-Governor run on separate tickets. No Republican has won the Lieutenant-Governorship since 1978. McClintock can afford to run separate and apart from Ah-nold.
