>> I have no idea what her point is.

Then why don't you just ask me?

I contend that the only way to hold ANY politician in check is to monitor their performance and when they stray from their promises to vocally point that out and reel them back in. When Republicans complained about all the liberal judges he has appointed, he began to appoint a few more Republicans (still not enough, but better). Some on these threads believe any action undertaken by an (R) should not be criticized whatsoever. I think that is wrong--and dangerous. If we are to have 4 more years of Arnold, as our REPUBLICAN candidate, then he should at least support SOME of the Republican platform. If you expect nothing from your elected representatives, that is exactly what you'll get--NOTHING.

The fact is that we have moved further left under Arnold than we were under Gray Davis. Arnold needs to be reeled in.


>> I know she hates Arnold

NO. I do not "hate Arnold." I do have a strong distaste for his LIBERAL ACTIONS as I see them as destructive to the State in which I have lived for decades.

I hope as we get closer to the election we will be allowed to have discussions of the polls and nuances of the campaigns, without every thread being hijacked by your performance art, attack activism.

If I read your response correctly you still didn't mention anything about who to vote for, or to not vote at all, you said your point is to continually bitch and point out the negatives of the Republican candidate.

On some threads that should be the very thing to do, but you can imagine how annoying it is to the rest of us that are trying to analyze the race.

You must realize at this stage, most of us know who we are going to vote for, now we are shifting into election mode where our focus is on defeating the opposition candidate.

Try to differentiate between a thread about the Governors work and a thread about the campaign.
