I see you are repeating the Dem talking points, trying to divide conservatives.

CA: Republicans find middle ground at party convention

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1686434/posts

Earlier in the week, Democratic Party Chairman Art Torres asserted that Schwarzenegger will have to answer for what he called the right-wing views of the others on the Republican ticket. Torres predicted that Schwarzenegger would not jointly appear with McClintock, Strickland and the others at this weekend's convention.

REPUBLICANS, on the other hand look at it this way:

Schwarzenegger's star power and fundraising prowess will help all Republican candidates, Sundheim said, and having true believers on the ticket will help bring conservatives to the polls.

"The people who come out to vote for Arnold, especially the Republicans, are going to vote for the other guys on the ticket," Sundheim predicted. "And the people who vote for Tom and Tony are clearly going to vote for Arnold."

It remains unclear whether that will happen, but Strickland said the important thing is not that Schwarzenegger campaign with him, but only that the governor does well.

The top-of-the-ticket race typically has a significant influence on races for attorney general, secretary of state and the other state constitutional offices.

In 1994, when Republican Gov. Pete Wilson won a landslide re-election, Republicans captured all but two of the other statewide offices. In 1998, when Democrat Gray Davis won in a similar landslide, Democrats won all but two of the other offices.

You are so deep in denial of many blatant facts or in the pocket of the powers that have shanghaied the CA GOP that you are unworthy of any response. Hack!
