I will tell you right now, the Democrats will now crank up their own dirty tricks. Clinton was the king of accusing people of doing things that he was doing or going to do.

I bet there will be a lot of shocking revelations come out of what Arnold has done. If I was McClintock, I would hang tight because it is going to get beyond ugly.

A classic case of projection. Davis projects his own evil behavior on his opponent.

Davis spokesman Peter Ragone said the campaign had obtained an e-mail showing that the Schwarzenegger camp was trying to stack one of the governor’s town-hall meetings “with shills for their campaign, Republicans who would disrupt and attack the governor.” “We find that deeply troubling and deeply disrespectful to the process,” Ragone said
Translation: We think that you may be planning to usurp one of our filthy Democrat schemes. What we are really deeply troubled about is that you are about to beat Davis like a tom-tom.

Democrats dont like campaigning before people who arent hand picked. put one Republican in there and they will claim its an Arnold shill. This is just starting it should be funny before its over, the Dems are grasping for straws.

Well, I'm certainly no Arnold supporter, but Gray Davis accusing ANYONE of "dirty tricks" is the height of chutzpah!

Yup - and there's a lot of that going on these days.

“We find that deeply troubling and deeply disrespectful to the process,” Ragone said, terming the tactic “dirty tricks.”

Looks like Davis is setting up the "fire with fire," "turnabout is fair play," and "he had it coming" talking points.

So, all of a sudden, Davis' word has merit?

No, not my point at all. Just observing how Democrat complaints about so-called "dirty tricks" by Arnold might be spun to justify some imminent slime attack by Davis.
