Arnold is a fiscal conservative..

LOLOLOL

(Uhhh, I couldn't help myself.)

He's a social liberal, that's for sure. ....but fiscally he's more consevatives than quite a few politiicians who call themselves Republicans these days.

Point is, despite what Thomasson said, there is a significant difference between these two candidates.

Schwarzenegger is expected to attend the Log Cabin Republicans event to raise money for the organization's West Coast chapters.

Good morning, Norm. So Arnie is raising money for the Log Cabin group. As the reputed head of the GOP in California, the gov can rarely be bothered to do fundraisers for Republican candidates at any level, or to help rebuild the party in this state, but he runs to do one for the LCR's.

In my opinion, the recall was a DISASTER in every respect.

is a fiscal conservative..

It would seem a very tight "fist(ing)" one

Arnold is pro-business more than he is an ideological fiscal conservative. Still, he made politically risky attempts to reign in the influence of big labor on the budgets. He lost that battle on a PR level.

I don't appreciate that you act as if he never tired to take on the difficult issues.

This election is a zero sum game: it's either Arnold or Angelides. Wishing for Angelides to win so a random "true blue conservative" can rise up and win in 2010 is FOOLISHNESS. If Angelides wins, he's in until 2014 unless he falls over dead or moves to the Senate or White House.
