Hopefully Bill Simon will get the message and drop out of the race in the next few weeks. We'll need Tom McClintock to stay on til its clear Arnold has enough momentum to win for two reasons: 1) to keep Arnold honest and 2) to be a backup candidate in the unlikely event the front runner does do a fast fade. I think when all is said and done, this race is Arnold's to lose.

Agreed. While I do not agree with Arnold 100%, I will support Arnold. Bringing back businesses (and if he is serious, that would mean cutting taxes and regulations), even if it was to support "social programs", is certainly better then no businesses in the state with tons of expensive social programs. I support Tom McClintock, but, since he doesn't appear to have much of a chance, I'd have to go with Arnold. Unless Arnold starts fading really fast which, I am hopeful that he won't. Bill Simon...I like the guy, but he had his chance...and lost.

Until the day Calfornia is a "conservative" state, a simple move to the right (even with Arnold) is better then nothing IMO. Puriest can weep.

Aunold's poll numbers peaked the day he entered the race. They will continue to decline until 10/7. He has no platform and/or solutions for the mess in Sacrameto. McClintock is the only candidate with a plan to balance the budget and do so without raising taxes and/or fees. Check out the McClintock's website before you make a series mistake! VOTE 4 MCCLINTOCK or pay the consequences! http://www.tommcclintock.com

Although I supported Bill Simon's candidacy during last year's primaries, and voted for him in the general election, he has not worn well with me. Last year, by the time the general election rolled around, I was beyond disgusted with the inept, pathetic campaign he ran. This year, he just comes off as a smarmy, smug, opportunist jasckass.
