"If a Democrat were adversely affected, the situation would be different. "

That is precisely why we can never affort to have Democrats elected to anything. Vote for the candidate with the greatest possibility of defeating the strongest Democrat.

Someday that may allow voting for third party kooks, but today it means voting for strong Republicans, RINO's or whatever. In the current California race, voting for anyone other than Arnold means helping elect a Democrat.

It is distressing to see McClintock's team (remember, no candidate for statwide or higher office is alone) mishandle this small matter so badly.

Exactly. Sad to say, voting too often boils down to picking the lesser of two (or, in this case, the least of many) evils. Many of Arnold's positions don't exactly thrill me, but the possibility of a racist like Buster Monty getting in scares the cr*p out of me.
