At this point I'm not much into insulting the McClintock camp any longer. It's beyond the point of it mattering IMO.

I don't think the McClintock camp is capable of understanding how badly they screwed over their candidate on this forum. A guy I planned on supporting and holding rallys for, wound up being a guy I can hardly stomach at this point.

Tom allowed himself to be used as a tool by the casino concerns, and even held one telephone conference with Bustamante, Camejo and Huffington with the sole purpose of screwing his party's front running candidate.

I've been called a RINO, a Manson supporter, a Dahlmer supporter, a NAZI sympathizer, a total sellout, a baby killer...

This election cycle should be a lesson to us all, how not to conduct ourselves on behalf of our candidates.

I can tell you we'll go through this again the next time.

Next time may be next spring when Tom runs in New Hampshire.

Tom McClintock is an honest, professional and knowledgable public servant. I like him.

He was disserved by whoever he availed for consul. He threw away his options. Arnold is up by 30 points in one poll. I think some selfish folks got in Tom's ear, layed some guilt on him about abandoning loyal supporters and his principles (never heard that here) ... and all the whisper whisper hang until the weekend, there gonna be some fireworks and you may be in a two man race. Something like that.

Arnold is NOT going to be smeared out of the race. You don't get to be Mr. Universe and Hollywoods biggest movie star by cowering to intimidation. Tom should have known that about Arnold. He should have withdrawn after the Hitler smear, he could have positioned himself as disgusted with typical tactics and fully supportive of Arnold, and the Party and Tom and Arnold would all have benefitted. Tom's isolated IMO, and if he has some of the FR yin-yangs in his ear he's just another tool to punsish a GOP pol who is not going to put Anti-Abortion at the centerpiece of the party platform. So, Arnold needs to be destroyed and Tom's continuation serves that objective.

Nobody wins here except some martyr junkies.

He has no funding base Ron. He couldn't raise money for the auditors race, how is he going to campaign against George W. Bush? Keyesters are cheapskates, any $1000 or $2000 checks are damn well going to go to Keyes! I'm thinking that there may be somebody like Tancredo who is going to run on a borders, culture, language Independent platform.

Tom has a million supporters in California, if each of them sends 10 bucks ... BWAHAHAHAHA
