>>>Please, stop just spewing out nonsense.

To conservatives, this isn't nonsense. This is serious politics. Looks like you haven't been paying attention. Giving Schwarzenegger a pass on all the issues, serves no good purpose.

In the last two weeks, Arnold has gone form uttering platitudes to uttering generaltiies. At the same time, Arnold has offered NO specifics and NO details.

Here's some conservative political statements from Tom McClintock says. Pay attention.

*McClintock has said:

"I'll spend the rest of my first day as Governor to personally de-fund every state agency that duplicates local or federal jurisdictions, or overlaps other state agencies or that is performing functions that the private sector could and should do anyway."

*McClintock also said:

"I believe that the only just tax is a uniform flat rate tax. Variable rates and progressive tax schedules allow one group of citizens to tax another group for their own benefit. We have watched for years as businesses have shifted the tax burden from business profits to sales and personal income taxes. Debates over progressive schedules invariably set rich against poor. With a flat and uniform rate, every single citizen is in exactly the same boat - in exact proportion to their income. Raise the uniform rate on personal income, the rate increases proportionally on businesses too."

*Another statement from conservative Tom McClintock:

"I have always thought that one of the phoniest claims in California politics is that 'I'm a fiscal conservative but a social liberal,' which always invites the question: 'How do you plan to pay for your socially liberal programs with your fiscally conservative policies?'"

*One more statement from Tom McClintock.

*"If the most qualified candidate must defer every time a celebrity or a millionaire casts a longing eye on public office, well then we've lost something very important in our democracy, and it's called merit."

Does this mean education is on table, no.
Said by A.Schwarzenegger

No legitimate conservative candidate can say, education cuts aren't on the table. That's nothing put deception on Arnold's part.

And Warren Buffet is a BIG-TIME liberal Democrat. WTF is he doing in the campaign of a conservative candidate?

Those are all wonderful positions for McClintock. WONDERFUL!

TOO BAD NONE OF THEM WILL EVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY!

I'll bet you were a Patsy. Does Bush pass the "conservative purity" test? No, but I'm glad he's in and has starting rolling back some of the crap left on our doorsteps from 8 years of Clinton.

REPEAT AFTER ME! THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH CONSERVATIVE VOTERS IN THE STATE OF KALIFORNIA TO WIN AT THIS POINT IN TIME!

This bears repeating.
