post misidentified the group's name Provided no quotes and gave no name at all for the purported spokesman. Real reliable.

Tom McImploded himself as well.
He will be as trusted as junk bonds after this race.
But I agree with you that in this race he has become irrelevant, despite what he and the indian casino money were trying to accomplish.

I also notice none of the Tombots with to acknowledge the McClintock ethics issue and his Jekyll and Hyde word.

That kind of flies in the face of your fellow TomBots who have argued that Mcclintock can win in California because Ronald Reagan did. Thanks. Ronald Reagan would have never had such a defeatist attitude as you display with comments like that.

I tend to call it "Vanity" because it's not a reprinted or linked story-published-elsewhere-initially, and because it's predominantly your own commentary (rather than, a big honkin' article with a little intro comment from you). I understand your point about the "seed" of the thread being from a radio broadcast, however.

Gratuitous & counterproductive.
And very unsporting.

How is quoting JR any different than citing the support AS has received from people like Brulte or Drier, etcJR runs this forum; Brulte or Dreier do not. JR could ban someone from this forum for whatever reason he wanted; Brulte or Dreier cannot. Hence, raising the specter of JimR's authority and implying that a poster is breaking some holy writ because they question McClintock's commitment to his own words, for which the poster might be banned, is the difference here.
Personally, I think the powers that be on FreeRepublic have let these flame wars go on too long, without any enforcement of civility. But, on the other hand, if they let the rhetorical food fight continue through next Tuesday, and treat everyone evenhandedly, more power to them, and their equitable treatment of everyone is appreciated.

Up until the CNN poll this weekend, that was the likelihood. Your assertion, not 'the likelihood'.

You can't have it both ways. Either Burton, Haynes, and Issa are lying, or Tom is lying. State for the record who is without all the sqirming and wiggling. I appreciate your confidence in my omniscient abilities, but as you say there are a lot of people involved here. I don't know Issa, so I can't say. I do know Ray and Tom and they are both decent Christian men and NOT liars, so maybe its the Democrat that is lying.
As far as I'm concerend he's not a spoiler until Bustamante wins. Tom has promised that he won't allow that to happen. All the polls this week bear Tom out.
Since it appears that Liberal Arnold the Pervert is going to win, what are you so excited about?

JR runs this forum; Brulte or Dreier do not. You would never guess it from the rhetoric of some of Arnold's more fanatic supporters.

You don't think a hypothetical of "Daschle (R) vs. Hillary (D)" isn't ridiculous?

Using Jim's opinion is a cheap debating tactic. I've seen posters do this with other issues such as the drug war. Do Jim's quotes somehow makes their opinion more valid? Using polling data is a cheap debating tactic. Does polling data make their opinion more valid?

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. Let me guess the other one: There's no way he would be able to clarify his multiple arrests without destroying his relationship with his brother, whom he claims was arrested while using his identity.
(Either that, or the "mistaken identity" stuff is a lot of hooey, and his brother wasn't ready to put himself on the cross for Darrell.)
Issa's arrests would have become Demo cannon fodder in the campaign, and would have derailed him eventually. On the other hand, there are no such charges against McClintock -- the best they've been able to do heretofore is that one of his advisors is too durned Christian.
Issa would also have to fight the notion that he was trying to buy his way into the Governor's mansion -- one that wouldn't be totally inaccurate.

... I choose to fight for a more conservative candidate, damn the team ...I'm kinda sorry you feel this way. It is a time of dramatic change and there is great potential in the Republican Rennaisance, brought about by Arniemania, and backed by trust and success. I look forward to re-welcoming the blue collar workers, and dis-empowering unions, and welcoming diversity, and negating false illusions. I say let's give Arnold the mandate he needs to go to Sacramento and ride rough herd! But I digress. Instead of damning the team, make your voice heard within the team, because we are the team which most represents your interests.

So I've notice. He's proven to be one of the more petty posters in these "discussions."

Using polling data is a cheap debating tactic. Clinton supporters used to do that all the time.
Ironic, huh?
