Gotta agree with you there. Re: Is anyone really FOR Arnold.... I may have seen one or two. But usually those quickly fall to the same 'Tom can't win' mantra.
Arnold's media blitz has made people actually believe this. I'll wait and see, but I have believed from the beginning that this blitz/mantra approach was the Schwarzenegger strategy from day one. Promotions and selling are right up his alley.... whether as a body builder, selling 'nutrition' products, etc. Quite a 'spin' job.
A good PR firm can do wonders. After spending millions in the late 80's, PR propaganda had the world believing that Michael Milken was a "genius", a "national treasure" who was "creating value" ... a victim of the prosecution who hadn't really done anything wrong.
Same thing happening here, IMO. But Arnold can't hide behind his handlers forever. Let's see if the guy has enough guts to debate McClintock.
