Welcome to GOPSTRAWPOLL.com! Originally created to avoid a splintering of the Republican vote, GOPSTRAWPOLL.com was started as soon as the Recall was certified in July. Our goal was to have only one strong Republican on the ballot. We couldnt turn back the tide of Republicans that are running. There are now over 40 Republicans qualified for the ballot. State Senator Tom McClintock tapped into his energized and large grassroots network to handily win our FIRST GOP straw poll. Now that the Secretary of State has certified the list of candidates, we are announcing: GOPSTRAWPOLL.COM THE SEQUEL This straw poll gives all Republican candidates an opportunity to participate and show the grassroots support for their campaign. A dark horse candidate can make a name for him/her self by doing well and candidates that are frontrunners might not be viewed as strong if they dont do well. We are encouraging all the Republican candidates to participate in the GOP straw poll so tell your friends, family and supporters to cast their vote for your favorite candidate. Each person will only be able to vote once. (If you voted in the 1st straw poll youre welcome to vote again). We will post the results to the web site on Monday of every week and deliver them to GOP leaders at the California Republican Party Convention the weekend of September 12th. TAKE THE STRAW POLL

Bustamante is NOT one of them.
I say vote for Arnold in the straw poll because Simon and McClintock both need to get te message that they cannot win this election.
If they don't figure this out somehow, then we will have Governor Cruz Bustamante.
It is just that simple.
To: DrMartinVonNostrand
Only a misguided, "go team", uneducated, RINO (even though I'm not an R) would vote for Arnold!.
Or maybe a liberal.
To: DrMartinVonNostrand
I other words:
I don't vote my conscience.
I vote my intellect.
To: D. Brian Carter
Who is the real liberal?
The one who votes for a pro-business Republican,
or the one who helps Cruz "Azlatan" Bustamante get elected?
To: CyberCowboy777
My vote for McClintock duly recorded...
Thanks Cyber...

I would think one would vote McClintock to send the proper message to Arnold myself. Unless you want Arnold to think the republicans support his policy. But suit yourself, show the man that you don't really care if he triples the property tax.

EXACTLY!
Why should we even CONSIDER consider changing the PROVEN electoral strategy which has work so well for so long in California?
DEATH before ELECTABILITY!
Check out THIS list of recently elected statewide officials, and see if you can identify any kind of a PATTERN: Governor
Gray Davis - RATLieutenant Governor
Cruz Bustamante - RAT
Attorney General
Bill Lockyer - RAT
State Treasurer
Phil Angelides - RAT
State Controller
Steve Westly - RAT
Secretary of State
Kevin Shelley - RAT
Insurance Commissioner
John Garamendi - RAT
State Superintendent of Public Instruction
Jack O'Connell - RAT
.
U.S. Senator
Dianne Feinstein - RAT
U.S. Senator
Barbara Boxer - RAT
.
U.S. House of Representatives
out of 53, 33 - RAT
.
California State Senate
out of 40, 25 - RAT
California State Assembly
out of 80, 48 - RAT
Who can argue with such a "successful" track record as this?
Why would we ever even THINK ABOUT doing anything other than we always HAVE done? < /sarcasm >

Sad, very sad indeed.
Everyone knows what Buffett said about the property tax, but no one seems to know that Arnold quickly disavowed it.
Arnold himself was even a speaker at the Proposition 13 Silver Aniversary gala.
Please, try to educate yourself before you go around spreading damaging misinformation about good Republican candidates. Otherwise, what makes you any different than a Democrat?
To: DrMartinVonNostrand
I heard one of his "advisers" come out against it. I haven't seen arnold take a stand on much of anything. To be this far along in the process and have no positions is what is sad, very sad indeed.
