I'm not voting, I left California over a decade ago.

But the principle I would vote for is leadership. The same quality I saw and still see in President Bush. In Ronald Reagan. It includes optimism, the ability to work with both sides, a vision.

Anyone can be a "policy wonk", list stats and information. And claim to stand by "principles", meantime using tactics that defy true ethical principles. Think of Al Gore.

Leadership is what California needs. Social issues are secondary for the sinking ship of the economy there. And true leadership is not easy to find, it is a true gift. Arnold has it, you can feel the power of his dreams and vision for California every time he talks. When McClintock talks he seems to alienate. That will accomplish nothing.

Of course you will put this down as too simplistic, as RINO, as a sell-out. That's fine. But you would settle for Bustamante to satisfy your principles. I see some real contradictions in that approach, and you should too.
