"If we could see Bustamante's vote split, "

And if pigs had wings, they could fly.

Bustamante is the only Democrat on the ballot and the Dems are famous for voting party line. They will all hold their noses and vote Bustamante.

There are things Republicans could learn from them, like how to win.

Bustamante is the only Democrat on the ballot and the Dems are famous for voting party line. They will all hold their noses and vote Bustamante.

There are things Republicans could learn from them, like how to win.

The Aug 26 SurveyUSA poll suggests a sizable cross over of Democrats to Arnold.

Moreover close analysis of the LA push poll suggests there are still about 10 perecent of Democrat voters that think that if you vote No on the recall you can't vote on question 2. Despite attempts to educate them with the "No on Recall, yes on Bustamante" slogan, I bet a signifigant number will not bother to vote on question 2 at all.

If it requires emulating Democrats, I'd rather lose.

Bustamante is the only Democrat on the ballot

In fact, there are 43 Democrats on the ballot.

The largest representation of any single party.

Actually it is NOT TRUE that Bustamonte is the only Democrat on the ballot. There are about 40 democrats on the ballot.
It IS TRUE that Bustamonte is the only really HIGH PROFILE democrat on the ballot, i.e., the only one who will get a double-digit percentage of the vote.
