You're completely missing my point. The vast majority of FReepers who decided to vote for Arnold did so because they felt he had the best chance of winning, bringing a Republican Governor to the State House and defeating Bustamante. As far as I'm concerned, that is a perfectly honorable reason to vote for Arnold, and I respect the decisions of those who voted for him on those grounds.
The folks I am disappointed in are those who voted for Arnold because they actualy agree with him on the issues moreso than they don with McClintock.
Am I making sense?
