Why not try a stand up for what you say you believe in rather than kowtow to what the Establishment is willing to dole out?Why not try a stand up for what you say you believe in rather than kowtow to what the Establishment is willing to dole out?

Especially when the appease-at-any-cost Establishment is attempting, through Arnold, to swoop in and steal the harvest of a true, grass roots rebellion.

My vote is not the birthright of the husband of a Kennedy.

...steal the harvest of a true, grass roots rebellion...

And what did the recall proponents expect? That no one would go after one of the most powerful governor slots in the nation, and that either Issa or McClintock would just waltz into the job? Did you really think it was going to be that easy to slip someone you believe to be a "true" Conservative in the back door of THIS state's political system?

I mean anyone even a little in touch with political reality could see this recall effort had potential disaster written all over it. But noooo... Folks such as yourself, with visions of easily grabbed sugarplums dancing in your heads, could not — indeed still cannot — see disaster staring you right in the face in the person of Cruz Bustamante.
