Of course, neither calcowgirl, nor the author of this blog mentioned all the conservative things Arnold DID do...

And they refuse to acknowledge the damage that Bustamante would have caused if the anti-Arnold faction had succeeded in getting that leftist elected.

That's because some conservatives are intelligent and savvy enough to know that we are only going to drag our country back to the right slowly through incrementalism, the same way it was pushed left. And other conservatives such as the anti-Arnold faction are hell-bent on allowing the country to be destroyed through their "all-or-nothing" radical ideology that consistently gives us NOTHING and keeps the country going further left.

The same "all-or-nothing" faction types in PA sabotaged solidly conservative Santorum, too, which shows you how absolutely unappeasable they really are... or what utterly fake conservatives many of them are in truth.

Nice of you to weigh in as an "expert" on California politics.

Thanks!

Please name 5 things that Arnold has done to move the State of California toward the right. In fact, a veto of liberal legislation helps us hold ground but does nothing to move us toward conservatism, incrementally or otherwise. Programs like Global Warming regulation, Minimum Wage Hikes, the Sierra Nevada Conservancy, No Fishing Zones, etc. only advance liberalism under the name of "the Arnold Way."

And other conservatives such as the anti-Arnold faction are hell-bent on allowing the country to be destroyed through their "all-or-nothing" radical ideology that consistently gives us NOTHING and keeps the country going further left.

I have never advocated an "all or nothing" ideology, nor have most of the conservative posters on California threads. If you think otherwise, please provide links. Otherwise, please take your unsubstantiated slurs elsewhere.

BINGO! No real conservative would possibly prefer a Dem over Santorum, who is quite conservative and did not deserve to lose.

Quite a few posters were so happy after the election, that they got rid of some "RINOs" by handing Congress lock, stock and barrell over to the leftist socialist Dems.

"or what utterly fake conservatives many of them are in truth."

And they say the same thing about you. In truth, both groups are conservatives who differ about strategy.

Now I voted for Santorum but supported McClintock and probably would have voted for him, so where do I stand?
