I will not be fooled into voting for the likes of Arnold again. This man is the real deal.

Tom is supporting Arnold, and they formed an "unofficial" ticket: Arnold for Gov, Tom for Lt. Gov.

And as I keep reminding people, and Tom is doing the same, if you don't vote for Arnold, you are helping Angelides or Westley, too ultra leftist Dems get elected.

Good speech. Smart speech.

Pushed the edge of political license frequently but only told one clear fib.

Used traditional principles as a rallying point rather than dealing in detail with the candidate's record.

Was a good soldier. Remained loyal to the gal that will bring him.

Good job in spite of the obstacles.

Thank You! What a great read after a long day.
I wonder if he writes his own speeches.

He probably does.

I want to share with you a poignant post of Carry_Okie's from this morning, to a poster lamenting that conservatives don't have much choice:

To: goldstategop
About all conservatives can do is ride it out and hope for the best.

Would a Tom McClintock governorship be worth $100 to you? If every conservative who had more than a hundred bucks to lose if a liberal gets elected had given money to the conservative candidate we wouldn't be in this mess. If conservatives who "don't have time" spent a bit of it on their County Central Committees, would we have better candidates? Don't give me this.
Get off your duff and get involved.

We have to help Tom get elected to take on the task of clean up a few years down the road.
