A powerful conservative group that pumped $200,000 into Republican Bill Simon's campaign for governor last year endorsed Arnold Schwarzenegger on Friday, saying the actor is the only Republican who can win the recall election to replace Democratic Gov. Gray Davis.

Oh Dornan supports Aunold allright...point of fact, Dornan now lives in the DC area...guess he's been drinking too much of that liberal water they serve in Georgetown...his backbone has gotten soft but then most of these guys go soft once they're out of office and start hiring their services out to the highest bidder!

The real question here, which is ignored and is not part of the article, nor does it really come up in any other discussion but it should, is:

OK, "Conservative GOP group endorses Schwarzenegger. Now, what specifically and precisely did they or conservatives-at-large receive in return in public policy promises, directly from the candidate?"

Waiting for the dead silence.

PS I think it is one thing to observe that someone is more electable, and another to offer an endorsement. I cannot imagine Robert Dornan endorsing any Republican in a race if that GOP candidate was NOT anti-abortion, and there was a pro-life GOP candidate also in the field and on the ballot.

Conclusion here: Conservatives should NOT give unconditioned love or support. Trust but verify. You would think they would have learned those sneaky RINO tricks and double-crossings years ago, but I guess just like dogs, some of them return to their vomit.

Maybe when leftist republican Arnie is elected and carries out the same lib agenda as Gray Davis furthering the destruction of California people will finally wake up!

Maybe...

They should change the name of their "club" to the "R's-Only Club." because all that matters to them an "R" on a ballot

"I'm ready for the fire and brimstone crowd to now call B1 Bob a RINO."

You guys are eventually going to have to stop calling everyone else a RINO and look in the mirror at yourselves and your candidate. You're simply wrong on this. Dornan is the Ronald Reagan of Orange County, Arnold is going to win and you need to drop McClintock - your circus side show candidate and join us in the winners circle.

The general population here in California is not willing to elect true conservatives.

Not true. It's just never been tried.

"Disgusting."

What's most disgusting is to be drenched again in the slime of defeat. Please don't let that happen again.

What is victory to you?

Higher taxes?

Free schooling for illegal aliens?

The defeat of proposition 54?

You only care that Arnold has an "R" next to his name.

All things you're assured of receiving if you help keep Davis/Bustamonte in office. The true RINO is YOU.
