If Arnold is such a liberal, then how could any "social conservative" have EVER thought about voting for him? Or, for President Bush who certainly holds some of the same "liberal" views that Schwarzenegger does.

How am I contradicting myself? There are some social conservatives that are supporting Arnold. I am not one of them. When you start floating trial balloons and defending articles on FR that Arnold is a social conservative, you lose a lot of credibility on this forum (you probably can see by the responses you and lipstick are getting). If you go on some Yahoo board you might be able to trick them but not here on FR. Comparing GW Bush and Arnold on social issues is like comparing the night vs. day. You are defending this article (Arnold is a social conservative) and puting Bush in the same light as Arnold on social issues. Comparing GW Bush and Arnold on social issues is like comparing the night vs. day. Nice try but your not convincing anyone on this board.

By stating in so many words that you would only vote for pure "social conservatives" while presumably espousing support for people like President Bush who are arguably nothing of the kind. Either you vote only for pure social conservatives or you don't - there's no middle ground.

There are some social conservatives that are supporting Arnold.

Yes there are. That's because they know like I do that no one candidate is always going to agree with them on every single issue.

I am not one of them.

Then you are supporting Cruz Bustamante in this race. How is that being a "social conservative?"

I think that the only people here who are "losing credibility" are the ones calling Arnold a Nazi or a rapist. In short, the "stone knives and bearskins" wing of conservatism.

A statement with absolutely no facts to back it up. Keep it up - you prove my case for me more and more each time you post.

Thank you again. Goebbels also used the technique of repeating a lie often enough so that people believed it.

Nice try but your not convincing anyone on this board.

My candidate is polling 40 plus percent in recent polls. What percentage of the vote is your candidate polling?
