Reason Number 1: He is a Republican.
Reason Number 2: He is a fiscal conservative.
Reason Number 3: His winning will piss off a lot of Democrats.
Reason Number 4: His winning will advance the cause of President Bush's re-election.
Reason Number 2: He is a fiscal conservative. -- His commericals and supporters claim he is. His actions show otherwise. So by this logic, we should be voting for Howard Dean too.
Reason Number 3: His winning will piss off a lot of Democrats. -- Vicente Fox's election "pissed off" a TON of 'RATs and liberals (Carville, Clinton, etc.) who thought he was conservative. Then he actually started governing and they're perfectly happy with him and the socialist agenda he implimented.
Reason Number 4: His winning will advance the cause of President Bush's re-election. -- Reason #4 has absolutely NO basis in reality. In 2000, Gore swept EVERY state with a RINO governor (IL, PA, NY, MA, CT, RI, NJ, etc.) The lone exception is TN, where the RINO governor laid low and every Republican there will tell you Sunquist was anything BUT an assest to the Bush camp.
By the Arinold camp's logic, Jeffords, Dean, and Vicente Fox are acceptable candidates, and there's no way Gore could have carried NY by 2/3rds of the vote since their was a three-term REPUBLICAN governor in power who was actively endorsing him and a bunch of other GOP powerhouses supporting Bush around the state.
