(Field) Poll finds Californians' glass half full

...you clearly intend to assure that the screw job starts again in earnest

This really ticks me off!

[edzo4]

I've always thought that the glass is half full or half empty depending on whether you are pouring or drinking, if you are pouring it is half full, if you are drinking it is half empty.

Thank you for the ping.

The 'joint ticket' I see are their individual efforts to shore up winning votes, to the benefit of them both. Voters for Arnold, who aren't used to voting Republican, might then vote for Tom also, instead of Garamendi.

Until Tom publically denounces Arnold, I will assume he supports him.
Call his office and find out for yourself.

Until Tom publically denounces Arnold, I will assume he supports him.

I'm waiting to hear Arnold say he supports Tom.

[b9]

He has already said it 500,000 way$.

[Czar]

"Can we assume ARnold has already abandoned Tom then?"

I think we can.

Strictly to bring about a little balance, I will not be voting for Arnold, just like the Primary. It will either be a write-in or left blank.

[calcowgirl]

I'm seeing shades of the old "Embarrassed to be a Republican" thing.

I think they are making a BIG mistake!

[FairOpinion]

Are you talking about the same "conservative" philosophy, which caused you to vote WITH the DEMS against Arnold's conservative propositions to control spending?

Yes, I am most definitely opposed to people running around claiming to be conservative, while supporting Dems and the Dem agenda.

[calcowgirl]

I voted against Prop 76 which wasn't conservative at all.

It authorized more bonds and more borrowing and did NOT control spending.

[b9]

Even McClintock supported 76.

[calcowgirl]

McClintock was against Prop 57/58, but you sure didn't seem to care about his opinion then!

btt

[b9]

Tom supported 76, yes?

[FairOpinion]

"Big spending, HUGE borrowing, free health clinics in schools, liberal judges, state land grabs, more gun regulation, bogus trade programs, prescription drug programs, global warming regulations, opposition to offshore drilling, envirowacko energy alternatives (as gas prices soar and blackouts are threatened).

I don't want any part of it."

You sure could have fooled me, the way you are trying to get Angelides elected.

[FairOpinion]

The Dems and the unions spend MILLIONS to defeat Prop. 76. You voted WITH the Dems and Unions to defeat it.

That is NOT a conservative stance.

[FairOpinion]

"I will not be voting for Arnold"


===

Another Angelides Supporter!

[calcowgirl]

Check again, FO. They spent millions to defeat Props 74 and 75--not 76.

[FairOpinion]

Sure, all the unions and Dems were actively campaigning for Prop. 76. (/sarcasm)

They spent millions to defeat ALL of Arnold's propositions, including Prop. 76, I recall lots of anti-Prop. 76 ads, and not one was paid for by conservatives. Conservatives voted FOR Prop. 76.

The fact that you didn't, shows you are supporting the Dems, and their agenda, while trying to pretend you are a conservative.

Supporting the Dem agenda and trying to get Angelides elected, are NOT what conservatives do. And this is exactly what you are doing with every single post.

[calcowgirl]

Sure, you want Arnold to trot out McClintock and run on "McClintock is conservative" to get 35% of the voters vote for him, if he is lucky, and 65% AGAINST him.

Brtilliant strategy, if you want Angelides to win.

Are you really too embarrassed to support a Republican candidate on a Republican platform?

That's very sad.

[FairOpinion]

Which part of "65% of CA voters are NOT Republicans" are you having problem comprehending?

Anyone running for statewide office in CA has to appeal to independents/moderates and Dems to get elected.

Appealing ONLY to Republicans will only result in DEFEAT and a Dem being elected.

But of course you know that, that's why you want Arnold to run far right, so Angelides can use that against him and get elected.

You are only using McClintock to try to divide the conservatives. McClintock IS supporting Arnold and he made that very clear many times.
