According to Lifesite, a Nov. 18, 2002 Associated Press article reported that Schwarzenegger describes himself as "very liberal" on social issues and that "He favors legalized abortion
and gay adoption". England's May 30 Guardian newspaper also quotes commentator Bill Bradley stating, "He's pro-choice, pro-gay rights
"
IS THIS REALLY AN ISSUE THAT FREEPERS CAN SWEEP UNDER THE RUG? SHOULDN'T WE DEBATE IT - UNLIKE ABOTION IT'S SOMETHING THAT STATE POLITICIANS CAN REALLY HAVE AN EFFECT OVER. SHOULD GAYS BE ALLOWED TO ADOPT YOUNG BOYS? IF YOU SAY NO, CAN YOU STILL SUPPORT ARNOLD?

LA Times polls have been off by as much as 17% during general elections. Who ever said they were right any time?

1st, I didn't know that you speak for Jim.
2nd, I also think that Jim is smart enough to realize that California is the most populace state in the union and holds the most electoral votes.
3rd, Putting a Republican in office in California will hurt the DNC greatly in 2004 and will cost them millions upon millions more to secure California in 2004.
4th, the issue you present is only designed as a liberal scare tactic such as "Republicans want old people to die and to take away peoples medicine."
5th, the issue presented is not up as any form of a bill in the legislator.

You don't care about the kids who will be adopted out to gays, apparently.From the fake title you created that completely misrepresents the news article, you seem not to care about girls b/c you only have a problem with gays adopting young boys.

Yes, As a conservative with values, I would not vote for Arnold. However, I don't live on the left coast and could care less if the consertative Californian's sell their souls and minimize their principles.

" guys refused and trashed me for it."
I haven't posted a single graphic, so I'm not sure what you're talking about. (Check my posts if you like.)
BTW, the "you guys" comment is also a bit off. I've had precisely one comment on "strategy" as it were from a Pro-McClintock guy. And that was telling me to not waste my time debating with the other side. *LOL* So...it's not an organized thing, sorry about that.
I haven't said anything about Schwartz as a fallback position, but since you asked, I think that he's fine as a fallback. I've also stated support for a "withdraw by a certain date if your numbers aren't X" too.
So even though I've never been asked this question, I would support him as a fallback.

From the fake title you created that completely misrepresents the news article,
This post wasn't meant to "represent a news article," but to get a debate going on gay adoptions, and whether the GOP should embrace as a leader someone who SUPPORTS GAY ADOPTIONS. Arnold supports them, but I have yet to see any of his supporters offer a justification for that position. What's your defense of adoption of young boys by Gays?

How much of this is spin by the combined Bustamonte-McClintock "hate Arnold" spin machine, and how much of this is truth?Now that Schwarzenegger is a candidate and his positions are fair game, has anyone asked him to clarify his position? Or are you going to take his prior word as gospel and use that to tar and feather him?

*ROFL* If you don't like the opinions or you find fault with the logic, that's fine. If you reject opinions based on the residence of the speaker, that's shallow and illogical.

I will vote for McClintock (provided he doesn't withdraw at the 11th hour) even if it means a Bustamonte victory. It's not so much about installing "our candidate" as it is holding Davis (and other politicos accountable) for their actions.
I will not sell out my vote for the sake of GOP political expendiency to someone who's positions are indistinguishable from the Dems. A wasted vote IMO is one where a voter really wants to vote for Republican candidate A but holds his nose and votes for Republican candidate B for the sake of a Republican win.
To: churchillbuff
Nope, I don't agree, IF that's true.
Too bad Arnold is THE BEST REAL CHOICE WE HAVE.

If you care about the Republican Party nationally, you ought to be concerned that the GOP in the largest state could be taken over by a group who are for gay adoptions -- something that would have been repugnant to Democrats as well as Republicans just a few years ago.
To: Tempest
What issue? All I'm saying is that your talking point that McClintock supporters are Democrat operatives is unfair and untrue.

Then you yourself are a Republican-In-Name-Only. True Republicans want their party to win elections.
