You think McClintock losing will sway Bustamante? As we'll be saying in a few years: El Amigo es loco!

OK you're right about Bustamante's inability to learn from McClintock's campaign points. But I don't think McClintock's presence in the race is automatically going to get us Bustamante. I just don't buy that. I think we're still in a very early phase of the campaign, and the only think I believe will hurt either Republican candidate is for them both to attack each other in any way but on the issues.
