It is true that Bustamove isn't much of a candidate, but that doesn't matter. There is at least 30% of Cali that is hardcore dem come hell or highwater. Probably only about 20% that are Repulbican come hell or highwater. Arnold is going to need all of that and a whole bunch of independents. Tom could easily take enough votes to keep him from winning.

I beg of all CA Republicans, don't do what the dems are doing, don't "Dean" yourself, don't "feel" your way through this one, "Think" about the direction you want your state to go. Arnold is obviously the candidate that has a chance at turning it in the general right direction. I hope that everyone thinks about this and does the right thing.

Guess we'll see. I live in a fairly conservative part of CA, and may be underestimating the 'throw the bums out' vote. However, the McClintock supporters who still support him now are not going to be easy to convert. Most genuinely dislike Arnold's positions on a lot of issues.
