The other day I also had a message on my answering machine from "The Republican Assembly" or something like that, telling me that Arnold is afraid to debate McClintock and defend his liberal positions, and of course, vote McClintock.

I think this was a dirty trick on the part of the McClintock campaign, pretending that Republican organizations endorse him, over Arnold, and viciously attacking Arnold, not a word against Bustamante.

I used to at least have respect for Tom, that he is sincere, a decent person, and a conservative, who wants to do what is best. Clearly he is smart enough to know that what he is doing is destructive for California and the Republican party and is doing it anyway.

Perhaps the real Tom is peeking out from under the veneer.

I got one of those phone calls, too. It was from the California Republican Assembly. They also called again and asked me for money, because McClintock's too broke to pay for CRA ads (which are usually paid for by the candidates, as the CRA has limited funds).

I asked them why McClintock couldn't use his tribal gaming donations to pay for their ads.

The California Republican Assembly is not affiliated with the McClintock campaign. It has been around for many years as has the Arizona Republican Assembly. The CRA is a state assembly of conservative Republicans which falls under the National Federation of Republican Assemblies which is now affiliated with Free Republic (see the front page, near the bottom).

Don't go shooting your mouth off until you know what the heck you're talking about.

My support for him has gone. Now he's into deficit.
