Simon Supporters:
First let me say how gracious and selfless Simon was in stepping aside for the greater good of the party and state. I respect Simon for doing so and he may have gained an opportunity next year against Boxer. I want to invite you into Arnold's camp. There's a lot of misinformation out there about Arnold's conservative credentials. I wanted to set the record straight- for a complete analysis on Arnold's politics (hint: he is No "liberal"), please visit: The Inside Scoop.
This election should be focused on who can we trust to get California out of the economic mess we are in. California has the 5th largest GDP in the world, yet we are one step from our state bonds bieng classified as junk bonds. What we need is a canidate who will bring both businesses and jobs back to California. Someone that can put us back on the track of prosperity. Arnold's strong business exerience and talented economic council is the answer. His emphasis is on the right issue: create the condition for economic growth and job creation.
And please pass this Inside Scoop link on to any and all other Simon supporters who are considering joining Team Arnold. We need to back a winner and Arnold offers our best chance against Bustamante.
Tough to hear, but sadly true in some corners of the movement. Chris Matthews said it well the other night: "There are some (conservatives) who don't want to govern...they want to be on the outside attacking those who do..." (Not an exact quote, but that's the best I can remember it.)
Remember when Newt or somebody at the pubbie convention told Maria to "get out". She was in their personal space.
Vat is best for kallyfornia? You all have seven weeks to win the recall and defeat the democrats.
Good luck because California isn't Florida. We are a more conservative state with a lot of fixed incomers who even complain about their phone bills going up a few bucks. We don't have a state income tax and other taxes that California does.
McClintock supporters should give me their links. I already have the official site for him on my web page.
Nah, he's a putz because he won't bow and scrape before the Schwarzenegger machine. He ought to be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail.
That's not my view, of course. I agree with you that McClintock is a highly experienced, principled, straight-talking, capable conservative. He's paid his dues and then some with faithful, consistent service in the trenches while the jet-setting Terminator was making fantasy films in Hollyweird and dining at the Kennedy compound in Martha's Vineyard.
Schwarzie's supporters don't have a clue where Arnie really stands on specific issues (although they conveniently ignore the clear liberal signals). They don't know because their guy doesn't have the guts to tell them. That's all right. They'll buy this pig in a poke and figure out what to do with it later.
