Ask any California conservative if they think Arnold has been good for California or the Republican Party. The answer is no. Some are on the record as saying they think a Dem would have done less damage in both areas.
California doesn’t have a foreign policy. California’s leaders don’t meet with other world leaders to discuss national security issues. California’s leaders aren’t responsible for every US military member in harms way. California’s leaders have no say in our federal tax rate.
Frankly, when it comes to an election as important as this one is, I don’t give a damn about what is good for the Republican Party, I care about what is good for this country, and when the only real choices at this point are McCain, Hillary, or Obama, the choice is obvious and should be to every sane thinking person.
