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.

Let me put forth another theory that I am disappointed that I haven't seen from more conservatives on Free Republic, everyone pay attention;

We are getting more stories about "Republicans" and "The GOP" urging McClintock that he must drop out here in August, than about the budget deficit. What is VERY -how shall I say- different about these "news" stories is that they do not name who the "Republicans" or "The GOP" is making these phone calls. Another very journaliticly uncommon aspect is the failure to pick the same telephone device and call these 2 for confirmation or denial.

People, do I have to spell this out? Why isn't anyone else seeing this? First I had to fight so many on FR about whether the recall would qualify, now this movie star sitting duck, *sigh* I'm not bitter; These stories are coming straight from the desk of Bob Mulholund, Gary South, and Art Torres. The last thing in the government subsidized world they want to do is use their shocking stories against (R)nold Buffet and have the numbers of McClintock rise and become a favorite. That is the worst possible situation, you know it, they know, I know it. Their quest, to put for all of the "rallying" BS in August, force Tom to be hated and ostresized within the Party until he drop out on his own. After all, "Republicans" are telling him to for "the party". Then aproximately Sept 23rd and after (the two week period, their Standard Operating Procedure) they can release things about (R)nold that will no one here want to vote, much less for him, and Davis survives or "N-Word" wins. Tom McClintock, for all you (R)nold lovers/McClintock haters, is the best shield Conan ever had.

Its so painfully obvious. God Bless the internet that I have a forum to share.

"or that if Arnold doesn't win, Bustamante will-- no other outcomes exist."

A third option exists. All the conservatives stay home and the recall fails. (That is the problem with both McClintock and Simon leaving the race.)

What do you contribute here? I see your homepage of teenage girls sure wastes bandwidth. Some might argue so do your posts.

The article does not say "B-1" Bob Dornan is supporting Schwarzenegger

It said the Orange County Lincoln Club that had in the past supported “B-1" Bob Dornan ....is supporting Schwarzenegger......

I've got a close friend that a member of the group ... I’ll try to find out whats up...

Something creepy about a middle aged man who still looks at pin-ups of little girls.

Sorry summer, better learn to like Arnold because he is the only electable Republican and the most McC could possibly do is to play spoiler and elect Cruz Bustamonte.

Or are you going for Coleman?

Conservatives are being pragmatic. Our first goal is to dump Gray Davis and our second goal is to beat Large Breasts. Our third goal is to elect a Republican Governor.

Right!

Gray Must Pay
Cruz Must Lose

Well tell you what

When Arnold gets in and he turns out to be a tax and spend Lib that really tanks the state (I can hear it now “for the children”) are you Arnold people going to give us “gee never saw that coming”

And if Arnold hits up Bush and the Federal Gov for a bail out of the state ... you going to back it?(because if a Dem in Bush can say drop dead...but with Arnold in Bush and the GOP will have to bent over for him

Bottom line if Arnold turn our to be the total turkey the McC people fear are you going to own up to is or are we going to get........ Arnold? Arnold who?

You back it you live with it...
