I can argue:
  1. that there exist degrees of groping, i.e., groping a desperate woman in the Oval Office whose husband is on the verge of suicide is different in both kind and degree from culturally acceptable (altho admittedly boorish) behavior within the hollywood subset
  2. that groping per se is not a disqualifier. (The clinton groping was a symptom of a far more pernicious pathology that directly translated into documentable unfitness for office transcending mere disturbing of one's sensibilities.)

But such debate is, in my view, beside the point. We do not have the luxury, post-911 to indulge our precious conceits. We must focus on our survival, literally.

If the clintons retake the White House, we will necessarily lose the war on terror.

But in order to retake the WH, the clintons must control California and its electoral votes.

We must, therefore, win California.
We must, therefore, vote for Schwarzenegger.
We have no other choice.

And besides, I believe Arnold is the more qualified candidate. McClintock has demonstrated with his political (as opposed to ideological) rigidity that he is uniquely UNFIT to govern the hodgepodge that is the state of California.

Moreover, he fails to understand the national and global implications of this race, or chooses not to.

Guess mentioning that such pleas of necessity were EXACTLY what NOW and many of the other leftist groups used when Bubba's sexual assualts popped up will do you no good huh? Covering for your candidate's sexual transgressions is wrong no matter what the circumstance. At the very least its intellectually dishonest not to admit to the analogy.

Your choice was to support and elect a decent man who had the party's backing, not some womanizing bodybuilder who the Hollywood world has known for decades chases women like chattel property.

The defenses of voting for Arghnold are disgusting and immature, and are a sure sign that Conservatives are certainly a dying breed.

If you support Arghnold over McClintock, you are not a conservative, you are a COINO.
