A compelling letter from our local paper - The Ventura Star

McClintock should win

I've been a registered Democrat all my life. From 1983 to 1989, I provided the Democratic Party with free rent and utilities in my Village Oaks Office Park in Westlake Village and free headquarters for congressional, senatorial and presidential candidates.

I was repeatedly named Ventura County Democrat of the Year. One day, the Democratic Party announced in the newspaper that it was shocked that the Democrat of the Year was supporting Republican state Assemblyman Tom McClintock. I answered that I always support the best man, regardless of party affiliation.

If all Californians only knew what I know about Tom's record as state Assemblyman and state senator, they would vote for him to be California's next governor. He is honest, hard-working, dedicated and innovative. He has sponsored fabulous state legislation and is now the most qualified gubernatorial candidate of any party. I'm so sure of this that I'm donating $1,000 to his campaign -- because I love California.

If all Californians only knew what I know about Tom's record...

What's this guy smoking? McClintock should simply get out of the race & back Arnold.

Not that it really matters.....Arnold won't really need McK's 5% anyway.

But it is irritating.
