Fox News just reported on the KABC "snap poll" conducted after Arnold's apology.

They reported that 10% of those who were planning on voting for Arnold have now changed their minds and are voting for someone else.

But, 12% who were not planning on voting for Arnold prior to the apology have now decided to vote for Arnold.

This gives Arnold a 2% net boost in his support.

That's karmic justice. Now maybe those who employ last minute smear campaigns will think twice and we won't have to suffer through the same cynicism during every prominent election.

A 2% change is statistically insignificant since the margin of error for any poll would be a lot greater than that.

The attacks aren't about Arnold, but about energizing the Democrat Feminazis. Davis has to get women to take time out of their busy day to vote a negative, which is harder to do than motivating someone to vote for something.

Unlike several prominent Democrats, Arnold is a big enough man to fess up and apologize. Admirable.

Anyone ever see CLUE, the movie?

"What if I told your employers at the UN you were a murderer?"

"You don't know the people I work with. It might raise their opinion of me!"

Hey, Clinton treated women badly and didn't suffer. Bob Packwood was also a letch and got away with it for years (until the women decided they didn't need his vote). Neither apologized.

Ahnold might as well move into the Governor's mansion right away. He can do no wrong. The twist and spin of Ahnold's detractors is blatently obvious and it is a 'No Sale.' The American people are not only not stupid, they are also waking up.

Teddy Kennedy killed a woman and is still not suffering. Only thing sufering on him, is his liver and belly.

A diabolical plot is afoot in the Davis camp to post "SHOE SALE" signs at all polling places to entice women to get out and vote.

I told you guys when Clinton went to CA to help Davis out that 1. Davis would definitly be out and arnold will be in

Ask me why?
ok I will tell you

Look at all the clinton guys who ran for either govern. or senate. They not only lost they were destroyed. It is the clinton touch.

Arnold is getting away with all kinds of stuff, between groping and attempted rape I am reading.

why is arnold getting away with this, cause Clinton lowered the bar. His abuse on women was oked by his group, so now Arnold is ok..

I know clinton hand picked Clark for pres or vice pres. you can bet Clark will go down big time.

The educated ones need to face the fact that Clinton screwed them and every politician he touches is doomed

With four days to go, the Mulholland Slime Machine has plenty of time to try to destroy Arnold. What's next?

1. Illegitimate children
2. Homosexuality
3. Pedofilia
4. Beastiality
5. All of the above

... 10% of those who were planning on voting for Arnold...

... 12% who were not planning on voting for Arnold...

Point of Mathematics please: These are not percentages of the same thing so it does not make sense to subtract 12 from 10 to get 2.

Trusting that what you said here is literally correct, and presuming that those who were not planning to vote for Anold outnumber those that were (since he is polling under 50%), then he gets an even larger net gain.

I believe that is the Schwarzenegger platform, actually.
