He will either destroy himself in the short campaign or, when & if elected, he will finish the destruction of California.
The fellow is a light-weight with extremely heavy baggage. "They" say his best friend in Austria was Kurt Waldheim-Waffen SS. They say Arnold toasted this man by name at his wedding, to the horror of the Kennedy Klan. A failure of judgement.
He can't even announce his campaign in a proper manner & must go to ancient, tainted, & weak sources for advice. He is Perot all over again. He has never gone beyond his own private endeavors & now the 'fans' want to let him have a position of real power & authority-over a crucial portion of the US. How amateurish.
This is a time for principle & character-not on the job training for an actor with amibition far beyond his experience or training.
We will all pay either way. If he fails to be elected, likely Red Davis stays or Bustamonte wins. All of us ( we being almost all tax payers, producers ) will get the bill for a bail-out or we will suffer from the collapse of the state's economy.

May I ask what you think you accomplished by saying all this? I could link you to hundreds of posts, if not thousands of posts on this forum that have said nearly the exact same thing you have here. All of it has been repeatedly posted here. And you know what, every conservative on this forum agrees with your take on it.
All this being true, is Schwarzenegger a racist separatist? Does it even bother you that California government would be infiltrated by literally thousands, if not tens of thousands of appointees who are over the 12.5 years, the possible term of the next governor.
If McClintock can't win, can you live with yourself knowing you facilitated Cruz Bustamante becoming governor? That's what it all boils down to. It doesn't boil down to you converting me to be a McClintock supporter. I already am. Every conservative on the forum is. You are trying to win a battle that is already won.
On election day, we will have to caste a vote we can live with. Whatever that decision is, I support your right to vote as you wish, okay?
I will not facilitate Cruz Bustamante becoming governor of California.
