I might add that McClintock's best chance would be to be elected L. Governor while Arnold goes down. That is not at all impossible if the election is close. But most of McClintock's vote will be a reflection of Arnold's vote. But not all. For those who want McClintock to become governor, voting for him and against Arnold is not irrational. It might just work. Will I do that? No, and McClintock is the shining light in a gold state desert.
Just exaclty how much clout do you think McClintock will have in an Angelides administration?
Surely you are not that naive.
