LOS ANGELES -- It was only last year that many state Republican Party activists were opting to back newcomer Bill Simon over former Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan.

Though Riordan was widely considered the more electable of the two, he had consorted politically with Democrats for years, and Simon sided with the party's conservative activists on social issues. Their pick won the nomination only to lose the general election to Gov. Gray Davis.

"What will Arnold do? What will he do? "

When he does it, he will have my trust.

While we back different candidates, I respect your decision.

If he wins, I shall support him in the role of Gubinor, but will expect others who have supported him to also be willing to offer and sustain constructive criticism when due and offer praise as well, when warranted.

Fair enough?

I have to go work on my other system and let my wife play some games on this sold laptop.

Have a good one. I may come back online a little later.

The truth of the matter is they have principles and fundamental beliefs and believe that elections should be about advancing ideas, not winning for its own sake. I doubt you or any Arnold supporter could articulate what Arnold plans to do if gets into office.

Which GOP principles does Cruz Bustamante advance as California Governor ?? It just seems crystal clear to me that voting on principle for McClintock results in Cruz as the next Gov.

So I guess I would just be curious to know from the McClintock supporters:

If McClintock dropped out, would McClintock supporters get behind Schwarzenegger ??

I hate to deal in hypotheticals like that.
