California Republicans: Arnold's No RINO! (Conservatives Support Him)

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1643459/posts


“The Democrats of Sacramento represent a tax-and-spend agenda that is not likely to change,” wrote the GOP’s “great right hope” of ‘02, Bill Simon Jr., in the latest American Spectator. “The governor could go a long way if he represented a stark contrast to that agenda. People like candidates with a vision, and Schwarzenegger has a reform-minded one.”

On the balance, Arnold’s been a great governor,” Scott Baugh, former GOP state legislator and now chairman of the Orange County Republican Party, told me. “His first act was cutting $4 billion from the budget. His second act, the repeal of the car tax, resulted in $12 billion back to the taxpayers. Worker’s compensation claims have dropped 40%. That sends a huge signal to business that California is serious about welcoming new jobs.”

Like other conservatives, Baugh hopes that a Schwarzenegger re-election this fall will give the state GOP what he calls “a bench,a conservative bench—Tom McClintock as lieutenant governor and Chuck Poochigian as attorney general.”

You really don't understand, do you?

"On the balance, Arnold’s been a great governor,” Scott Baugh, former GOP state legislator and now chairman of the Orange County Republican Party, told me."

As has been explained to you countless times, Baugh is a lapdog for the silk sock, country club New Majority RINOs, and is no conservative. In a purge engineered by the New Majority (assisted by Dufus Sundheim and his CRP pecksniffs), the real conservative--Tom Fuentes--was displaced and Baugh inserted in his place.

You should avoid posting this kind of utter nonsense to Orange County conservatives. Unlike the blindly faithful, we know better.

Want to try again?
