That's the best argument for voting for McClintock -- that this is a unique election that gives a true conservative a chance to win.
Unfortunately, I don't think that's going to happen. Another dynamic may be that if McClintock started polling well and beating Arnold, some of Arnold's other support -- from Dems and centrists -- may go to Bustamonte because they don't want to see McClintock win. If Arnold collapses, that turns it into a two candidate race, and that makes it tougher for McClintock. You can't change one variable and assume that the race dynamics stay the same.
But like I said, you present the best argument for supporting McClintock at this stage. I'm not quite sure why your post is generating the antipathy coming its way.

It's "If I win the lottery on Wednesday, I'll never have to work again" kinda stuff.

It's almost a stealth campaign.

Uh, because it is a ridiculous hypothetical at best.
People here have little tolerance for absurd propositions.
Many others are hostile towards those who will ensure that RAT control of Californica's statehouse continues. That is the certain result of conservatives sticking with Mc.
Arnold is the only Republican who would draw support from non-Republicans and none can win without that support.
