I told him I didn't know, but Darrell would have a persuading argument to ask him [McClintock] to step aside, since Tom could not have made it work without Darrell's help. I know Darrell talked to Tom about not running. Tom ultimately decided not to reconsider. Issa is a strong conservative, and was, more than any other, responsible for the success of the recall, but Tom's believed he should be Governor. That was one of the principal reasons (though not the only one) Darrell chose not to run. We lost a solid conservative, who could have financed his own campaign, and got a solid conservative who could not, because Tom believed he was entitled to the Governor's office.

So McClintock's sense of entitlement trumps Issa's money, because it is Issa who is selfless not McClintock.

It sure looks that way more and more each day.

Bull's Eye!

Furthermore, McNader is in the race to stay because he's hoping to keep Arnold from winning. He is mad at us for choosing Arnold over him. Sick, sad, but true.
