I might vote Republican for the first time ever!

As a Californian, Ahnold may have just saved face in my eyes...when he put money towards stem cell research after what's his name vetoed congress' bill.

Politician's love single-issue voters. You really should examine all of a cadidate's record and positions before checking that box.

Dont forget how much he cost us for that EXTRA election that resoundingly defeated all of his initiatives.

Dont forget him letting Ken Lay off the hook for all that money he stole from everyone who uses electricity.

Dont forget how he treated our nurses, increasing their workload so the hospital CEOs could make more money.

Dont forget how first responders will be voting against him.

Dont forget he appointed Bruce McPherson as Secretary of State, who promptly certified Diebold voting machines in spite of known hackability. And who also allows poll workers to take election machines home with them for a week or more before and after elections.

Dont forget.

Oh yeah and Dont Forget to check Arnold Watch regularly...

He got kudos nationally and around the state for moving stem cell research forward in California and distancing himself from George W's brand of Republicanism. Overlooked was the fact that a major beneficiary of the move, the biotech and pharmaceutical industry, has donated $1.09 million to his committees.
(bold is mine)

These items only scratch the surface.
Do your own research before you vote for anyone.

I can't see any redeeming qualities about either major parties track record as a whole, or generally, by the individual.

I think Russ Feingold, Ron Paul and a very select other COUPLE are worthy of any position in government from the existing hundreds.

They all consistently vote as one party, though they claim to be two, at least on crucial issues like anything related to the Constitution, the Bill of Rights or the "accepted current view" of any of them.

Down with the two party system.

That is my two-cents.

You mean the ONE party system, don't you?


Not a day goes by that I don't see something that reinforces my belief that people are idiots.

Arnold won't be returning, gays/lesbians who supported him once, won't give him the time of day after vetoing marriage bill. In CA politics the LGBT community can decide two or three major urban areas.

But you didn't use quotation marks, Os. You know how confused I get without quotes.

BigD, I would ask for sake of argument what alternatives YOU consider?

Are you a Democrat?

I recall when Arnold wouldn't have had a job without gay support, guess he'll find out how that goes when we dump him.

Even your Lt.dyke can't help ya now.

You really should spell the words correctly (candidate) otherwise it makes you look silly
