All Arnold's doing is setting up a huge Dim victory in 2010.
The CAGOP will stab McClintock in the back, and there won't be any other Republican that has Arnold's star power and money. The Republican candidate will have no choice but to run as a out-and-out liberal because Arnold has already moved the ideological goal posts to the left of center. Villargrosia will easily cruise to victory and the Reconquista will begin and hopefully FR will move its headquarters to Texas.
Much better to give the Dems victory right now by electing Angelides, right?
