That's a bunch of crap. Anytime you throw out a corrupt 'Rat you've gained ground. Are you really saying you'd prefer a criminal as your Governor, regardless of how much you dislike Arnold? Do you really think your state would be better off with a crook at the helm? If so, you sure do have some strange "principles".

Yep, no different than with Reagan and Wilson. You sure are electing those conservative Republicans to national offices by such tremendous landslides. I'm sure Senators Mountjoy, Campbell, Huffington, Herschensohn, Fong, and Jones, and Governors Lungren and Simon will agree with that. Cripes, you've got Dumb-As-A-Box Boxer and Diane Fineswine as Senators for Life. Nope, nothing has changed since you had Reagan, Wilson, Deukmejian et al. And you've got the nerve to say I'm "so wrong". Sheesh, your own state's electoral history proves you wrong.

In the contest of Davis vs. Schwarzenegger, it was the best you could do. Your Governor was going to be one of them, or maybe Bustamante. Your choice was to start with someone fresh, or stick with a crook or his protege. There were no other viable alternatives and you know it.

Arnold has passed legislation that Davis vetoed, promoted unconstitutional borrowing that Republicans previously blocked when Davis tried it, increased spending at a more rapid rate, borrowed up the kazoo for special interest pet projects, promoted and signed destructive legislation for Global warming regulation (including the cap-and-trade scam), implemented subsidies for solar roofs, embryonic stem cell research, hydrogen highways, etc. and supported and signed more pro-gay legislation than any governor in history now implying that there is no need for “marriage” at all. And I’m not even getting started!

Please enlighten yourself with the record.
Schwarzenegger makes Davis look like a piker.

What we got is a corrupt 'Rat with an (R) behind his name, basically neutralizing any opposition. Worse, Arnold has done everything within his power to assure that down-ticket conservative Republicans lose and backed the RINOs that vote with the 'Rats, of whom Abel Maldenado is the archetype stooge.

Some improvement.

Arnold simply hasn't been exposed, yet. His machinations with the alcohol, real estate, and energy lobbies certainly deserve attention, especially the NRDC.

If so, you sure do have some strange "principles".

As opposed to a case of massive ignorance?
