Should Schwarzenegger quit?

>> "When he started, Mr. Schwarzenegger boldly said he would bankroll his campaign. Now, he's accepting campaign money. We don't have a problem with that. It's the contradiction that is both foolish and not admirable."

Arnold did announce at the beginning he would not accept PAC money! He would not be beholden to special interests!

No, that's similar to what he said recently. At the beginning (Aug. 7th), he said,
"As you know, I don't need to take any money from anybody. I have plenty of money myself."

Hiya Reg, I checked your profile and really dig that picture of Arnie. Would you post it on the thread, pretty please.

[68 grunt]

Thank you for correcting that dudes inaccuracy.

Outsider Mr. Schwarzenegger depends substantially on Sacramento insiders from Pete Wilson Inc. He also pledges to clean up Sacramento. But one of the state's biggest scandals involved insurance companies that failed to pay legitimate earthquake claims. They gave hush money to Insurance Commissioner Chuck Quackenbush, who resigned in disgrace. And, you guessed it, Mr. Schwarzenegger hired the culprits.

Could somebody please explain this paragraph? "the culprits" seem to refer to the insurance companies. How does Schwarzenegger hire the companies?

It will be proven when Bustamente wins and the difference in victory is the total for McClintock.

God, you're really gonna enjoy bustamecha. After he's elected I hope you don't bring your whiny, scared point of view here.

When he started, Mr. Schwarzenegger boldly said he would bankroll his campaign. Now, he's accepting campaign money.

An unsourced, undocumented allegation. Bustamante's Angels will have to do better than this to cut into Arnold's 45 percent.

You call the California Secretary of State's website an "unsourced, undocumented allegation"?? Bwahaha..... you Ahnold Poll Jockeys are amazing...

[Sabertooth]

Well, if enough of you sit out or vote for McClintock you can all get together under the new Cruz administration and have one great big pity party...but please, don't hold it on FR.

The situation in California isn't quite as simple as many in the "a vote for Tom is a vote for Cruz" camp would like to believe.

Arnold said yesterday on Hannity that the Illegals who are already here should stay.

"Now we have to move forward with the whole thing and to look at it, what we're going to do with all the people that are undocumented immigrants here in this state. What should we do? Should we have them to stay here, which I think is the right way to do, but how do you then include them in our society, how do you make it official, how do you make it legal?"

Despite the subsequent spinning of Schwarzenegger's campaign, you know the RNC's code words as well as I do, and you know that Arnold is parroting the Bush-Rove line on Amnesty.

If Arnold wins the election under those circumstances, Bush gets his Amnesty green light.

A voted for Arnold is a vote for GOP-sponsored Amnesty for Illegals.

They're worried about McClintock, that's why they're suckering the RINO's into voting for (R)nold.

No. More likely, Schwarzenegger misspoke when he said, "I don't need to take any money from anybody. I have plenty of money myself."

I don't see anything wrong with accepting campaign money. It's just stupid to say what he did.

... you Ahnold Poll Jockeys are amazing ...

Yes they are, thank you for complimenting their fine effort.

Bwahaha, ... you Arnie assasins are pathetic!

Under election laws, the funds given to him must go someplace....I especially like this donation: NAME OF CONTRIBUTOR: ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER SANTA MONICA CA / 90405 ID NUMBER EMPLOYER OCCUPATION: OAK PRODUCTIONS, INC.

Funny, I thought we were all conservatives as well.

A vote for McClintock is a vote to make sure there won't be a conservative idea implemented into law in Sacramento for the foreseeable future.

you people just lie lie lie, get called on it, then laugh it off. Disgusting.

[strela]

You call the California Secretary of State's website an "unsourced, undocumented allegation"??

And where was the link in the original story? I stand by "unsourced and undocumented" in the original story.

Bwahaha..... you Ahnold Poll Jockeys are amazing.

I find it even more amazing that some so-called "conservatives" such as yourself could be having purse-swinging catfights with others for the right to firmly implant your nose in Mister Four Percent's back passage.
