Yes indeed. Character and attitude counts.

It is ironic, and too bad that McClitock couldn't see the big picture. He could have been a hero and would have helped his future career a great deal by doing the right thing. He is only 47, in 7 years, he would have been as old as Arnold is now, and he could have run for governor then, using his successes in the Schwarzenegger administration as a record.

He is indeed cutting off his nose, to spite his face.

He may have been a good man once, but his character flaws drove him to this path of self destruction.
