This California race is about much more than California. This is about changing the entire face of the Republican Party for years to come. It is a struggle for the heart and soul of the Republican Party. It represents the ultimate battle in the never-ending competition between the two frequently warring right-wing factions: conservatives and libertarians. There are some great points in this article, and there are some stupid ones.
I guarantee that Arnie is not the vanguard of a divisive libertarian/Republican battle nationwide. He is merely another example of the range of thought in the Republican party.
We've always had the social conservatives, the religious right, the economic conservatives, the libertarian strict constructionists, and some RINOs we couldn't quite understand held any of the above views.
But the rest of the nation views what is going on in California as purely a local circus. It may be dividing Republicans in California, but there's no spillover anywhere else.

Would you clarify this statement. Do you mean there's no spillover of division in the Republican party due to the Kalifornicate circus/recall? My belief is that the rift is growing among Republicans due to RINOism, altho no where near the KA degree yet.
There is certainly a huge spillover of the toxic ideology coming out of socialist, immoral KA.

Don't kid yourself. division IS being played out elsewhere and those analogous to Arnold would geld the GOP.
