Quotes from another thread:

Bustamante as governor would not be good news for Bush. As a Democrat in the governor’s chair, he would inherit Davis’s fiscal problems but not his personal baggage. Accordingly, the election of a Republican Oct. 7 suddenly becomes a Bush priority. Nobody gives 2002 nominee Bill Simon a prayer, and state Sen. Tom McClintock is a very dark horse. That is why, on the day after Schwarzenegger nudged aside Riordan to become a candidate, the President declared of the five-time Mr. Universe: “I think he’d make a good governor.”

I think McClintock is the better candidate. If he can't win I will vote for someone else rather than see Davis or worse yet Bustamante hold the office.

That's exactly why I was curious about the reported 17% for McC, earlier on this thread.

My election practice is identical to yours, except in the case where the vote is totally meaningless--and here, there have been such times (e.g., where the Dem is so far ahead that a vote for Howie Phillips is just fine.)

But if McC gained about 50% (from 12 to 17) in the last week, and Aaaahhhhnold has STILL not laid out a plan, and McC is campaigning effectively--

It Ain't Over. No fat lady tunes yet.
