Not surprise here. We were warned. Some chose not to listen and to become Arnoldbots - and some Arnoldbots even chose to slime those of us who could see through the Austrian and supported McClintock. So, where are the apologies now? I guess being a “pragmatist” means never having to say you’re sorry.
I watched that election cycle and the primaries before it, from here in Ohio, and on another political website (now gone totally kook). And I remember those that desperately wanted McClintock to be the nominee, not Arnold.
I didn’t think McClintock could win a statewide race for Governor, and nothing I’ve seen or heard from him has changed that viewpoint.
It doesn’t matter who the nominee is in California. Its a very unique political enviroment, one where a relative tiny union (prison guards union) has enormous clout statewide, for example.
I just don’t see how you can elect a bonafide conservative in the state the way things stood then, or stand now.

***Almost tagline worthy.
