Here's the case, vet. (I too am a retiree...army..2001)

You never touched a woman inappropriately and you are an army veteran. Wow. How did you manage that ? You must have been committed to chastity at quite an early age. More power and honor to you.

McClintock is the better man....imo, since I'm a conservative.

I agree.

I am pragmatic enough to realize that McClintock and/or Schwarz needs to make a last minute announcement releasing their supporters.

It's too late. Not enough supporters would listen now. They are both better off staying in so Davis goes out and we can only pray one of them wins instead of Cruz. It was a reckless gamble and we will reap the consequences.

However, they play dirty pool in politics. Proof of these allegations will shortly be forthcoming. [How would youi know that ?] If Schwarz gets shot dead in the next 48 hours, he needs to fall on his sword. If the proof isn't forthcoming, then Mac needs to fall on his. [It's too late, this is a benefit for Davis (or maybe Bustamante)] Remember.....multiple women willing to make an accusation in public (not just in print) IS considered to warrant investigation of a pattern of misbehavior.

I agree. Put them and him under oath. It should have happened before though and not days before an election. It is a political hit and does not seem credible. It is typical of Gray Davis and so one must remain skeptical in the absense of credible allegations. We shall see if there is any substance forthcoming.

I believe that McClintock announcing he is releasing his supporters would have an effect. He could say something like, "I'm staying in the race, to fulfill my pledge, but I am releasing my supporters to vote for Schwarz. I will remain in the race up to the end so there is an available candidate should there be any last minute lies designed to affect this vote."

I think some % of McClintock supporters would then move over to Schwarz and that would seal his strength.

Schwarz, on the other hand, has a large base of supporters that I'm not sure would switch over to Mac because I think they're not traditionally republicans, and certainly not conservatives.

He would have to quit the race, and even then I'm not sure it would send those supporters over to Mac.
