....If Arnold is the answer, I think many here have lost sight of the question and issues at hand.....

Let's think on this a minute. What exactly will be his job? He must enter his office and immediately direct the dismanteling of the California government. There will be thousands to be removed from the state payrolls. There will be political blood and guts and gore all over.

To quibble about purity of conservative values misses the point. When you are up to your ass in alligators, saving egrets doesn't have much priority. First you must dispose of the Gators. Slay them, ship them off to Nevada or put them to sleep, just remove the threats. If you fail to take care of the gator problemn nothing else in the swamp matters. The gators will eat you and everything else while filling the swamp with gator crap.

There is a strong possibility that the gator elimination operation will prove so politically costly that he will no longer be needed. Succed or fail, the job will be a killer.

It will take more then a "star" to do the work that must be done. I do not believe he has either the fortitude nor the cranial capacity to do the job well or right.

Also, It won't get done overnight. IMO, I don't think he is the type that will be able to stick it out.

The Recall is the beginning of a long process of elections and nasty legislative sessions.. ie., a crusade to restore this Republic to it's once proud role as the leader in the nation in many ways.

Who are Arnold's backer today? I hardly consider them realists, more romantics or fantasy chasers..

They are the same folks that destroyed the coalition that Reagan had built and appealed to and today, have made the CA GOP a neutered and feeble entity by providing ineffectual and smarmy leadership.

I don't really think we want a lukewarm conservative in the guise of a RINO costume leading this crusade.

True, but where do we get the idea he is up for that job?

Arnold's a bad-guy-killing superhero only in movies.

What's his real level of personal and political courage to stand up to socialists????

It's quite possible if CONSERVATIVE Republicans find *one* candidate to support, that 35% of the electorate (or whatever it is) could have the winning candidate.
Is Rep Issa that candidate? Maybe so. I'd trust him more than Ahnold.

If we dont, I agree with billybob's fine analysis - a RINO stampede with the "Terminator" of Davis' career.
