I disagree, McClintock nearly beat a Democrat statewide during the last election -- losing by only 17,000 votes despite being outspent 5 to 1. And according to the most recent LA Times poll McClintock pulled in more Independents than Bustamante and had twice the support of Arnold (28% vs. 14%)among Indies. I don't think either candidate should pull out. That's what elections are for -- let the voters decide.

Good Grief! McC narrowly lost last time statewide when he was running against a nobody. Now he's running against a somebody plus a half a somebody. Or hadn't you noticed?

And assuming your stat is correct that McC outpolls S among "independents." Please state your plan for keeping any Republicans or Democrats from voting in this election, since S has a lead among both of those groups.

Don't you ever sit back and think about what you're posting?
