I remember way back when Bush won the presidency, and some guy in the receiving line starts saying he never voted for him, and he wasn’t going to be any good, etc. And Bush shook his hand, moved him along the line, and said “Who cares what you think”. So I say to Arnold, who cares what you think.
Not so sure about that. IIRC, Jim didn't take any polls back then. I do know I backed McClintock. The "Harpy" contingent were very vocal in their support for Arnold. As you must know, in 2003, the Harpy's, aka. the Bushies, ruled the forum and any opposition was quickly dealt with and flamed down. While there was support for McClintock, it didn't match the intensity for Arnold. Frankly, the ArnoldBots ran roughshod over the vocal opposition to his candidacy. Not unlike what recently transpired with another liberal Republican by the name of, Scott Brown.
