The Republicans who vote for Schwarzenegger will owe Bill Clinton an apology for having given the nation the impression that they sincerely believed character to be an issue for those claiming high office.

Doug - defender of Willey - needs to hear Alan on this issue. I ask again: would Doug and all the others who rightly screamed about the treatment of Willey by Clinton, have kept their mouths shut if it had been ARNOLD who groped her? It's looking like they might have. They seem to care less about Willey and women who are victimized than the party label of the alleged victimizer

To be fair, Doug has posted that if Arnold does something like this in the Governor's office, Doug will be first in line calling for his ouster. But I don't understand why this behavior becomes disqualifying only when done while in public office? Does that mean women are fair game for groping in other settings?

keyes supported simon too, so he's going to rack up a consistent track record

Yawn.

From lucianne.com this morning:

"They Are Never Going to Get It: Feminist, leftists, so-called 'progressives' and Bush Baiters (and now Cbuff) are simply never going to understand that when Arnold was running around being a pig with women he owed us nothing." (my bold)

Bingo. Starting Tuesday, he owes us something. It's a calculated risk.

As dfu said (paraphrasing): "Bookmark it. If he does this while in office, I'll be first in line calling for his resignation."

Apparently Doug is someone who is able to see a difference between the boorish behavior of a group compared to a vicious biting rape and the threatening of a victim's children. If Arnold gropes once as a public official, I want him gone.
