Good enough... however... why are there all these so-called Republicans telling me to get behind Arnie NOW because if I support McClintock, I'm handing the governorship over to Bustamante...

I'm not a sheep... I vote for candidates who share my vision and has clearly stated his policies and plans. I won't vote for someone because he's popular.

If Arnold comes out with a coherent, viable, and fiscally sound plan, I will consider supporting him. Until that time, I can only judge him on what he does... and at this point he has:

1. Appointed Pete Wilson to run his campaign - the Governor at the time of the biggest state tax increase in the history of the US. Who was AGAINST Proposition 13 when it was being debated.

2. Appointed Warren Buffet - who has socialistic views on the distribution of wealth in this country. Who has just said that Proposition 13 should be changed.

3. Appointed Rob Lowe - to bring in more Hollywood types.

4. Appointed George Schulz - who was one of the first SoS's to bring in the "World View" into the State Dept.

I don't like what I've seen so far.

Sigh.

I didn't like a lot of what I saw before he got in the race.

I would have him do a list of things differently.

How many ways can I say it . . .

There are NOT a LOT of options that will fly ANYwhere.

But in terms of Arnie,

he may not be perfect in any respects.

BUT HE'S GOT A LONG LIST OF ASSETS IN HIS CHARACTER, PERSONALITY, PUBLIC PERSONNA, PUBLIC REPUTATION AND VICARIOUIS IDENTIFICATION AND BANK ACCOUNT

THAT THE NEXT 200 CONTENDERS COULD NOT MATCH COMBINED.

Just a fact, IMHO.

That fact is not going to go away. As he gets up to speed and communicates authentically his vision, goals, even more forcefully his personality that he's investing toward undoing corrupt Sacramento--the masses getting on his bandwagon will likely be more like a stampede, IMHO.

We shall see. I have been wrong before. I will be wrong again. I do not believe I'm wrong ESSENTIALLY about Arnie.
