"Most of the people on this forum would gladly watch McClintock sworn in on the capital steps."

The mainstream Conservatives, yes, the RINOs, no.

I, for one, would be MUCH happier with McClintock sworn in on the capitol steps but let's be practical here. As of right now, it doesn't look good for him! I will not make up my personal mind until about October 1 but I have to admit, I like the things Arnold is saying right now. He's no different than Cruz? Will, Cruz is SURE to try to raise taxes, for Arnold, it might happen but unless you can see the future, it isn't clear that he's going to try to raise taxes. I would rather have that level of uncertainty over the certainty of what Busta"meche" would do. FWIW, I think Tom McClintock is a conservative hero in California and I hope he stays in the race until, at least, September 15th to keep Arnold honest to the right wing.

Whaddya mean ? Bill Simon just got out. His supporters go to Tom.

You like hearing this ? That he'll raise your taxes at some point... possibly ? Dude, I just had a RINO Governor and he went absolutely tax-happy. Set aside all of the social issues for a moment, economically-speaking, Ah-nold will follow the line of every other RINO and raise your taxes. He's got a "visionary" Socialist agenda to impose, and he needs the $$ to do it. Now, would you rather a 'Rat do it and have a viable Republican party put a stop to it, or a "Republican" do it and have NO ONE stop it ? It's your choice.
