New poll shows Arnold ahead!

[The diplomat]

http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/09/28/recall.poll/index.html

A CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll of 787 registered voters shows recall would get 63% support and Arnold would win with 40%. Bustamante woud only get 25%.

Wohoo. McClintock should just give it up. He's doing this fool "Schwarzenegger isn't hard-core conservative enough" campaign, and California is not a state where you can get elected for being a hard-core conservative.

I like Schwarzenegger a lot. I'm not sure whether he'll be super-competent, but his stances on the vast majority of issues are the same as mine- unusual because I have a liberal stance on a number of issues that most conservatives are quite polar on.

I think it's funny how Davis keeps changing tack. He tries to villify the other candidates, says its part of a Republican conspiracy to steal elections that started in 2000 in Florada, makes a big show of challenging Schwarzenegger even though they aren't going to be directly against each other, just to try to show that he's a "real politician" and Schwarzenegger isn't, and he threat.

I'd be normally opposed to the idea of a recall, but Davis was only elected by lying about how bad the state was doing, and if he had been truthful, he wouldn't have been elected. Considering that more people want Arnold than want to keep him, I definitely say this is OK.

McClintock probably is the better conservative republican. He would probably make a better governor. But he lacks the charisma.

And most polls have shown Arnold ahead or just even with Bustamante all along. I knew he would pull ahead anyways.

I support Arnold for governor. But he's inheriting a pretty huge problem. I don't think he will be that effective as governor. He will learn dealing with polititicians is worse than dealing with producers.

I kind of hope Bustamante wins.

I doubt the accuracy of this poll, All the other polls I've seen on TV show Bustamonte ahead and recalling Davis about 50/50. You just picked the poll that favors your side the most, Diplo.

NO on the recall, YES for Bustamonte!

Arnold is a friggin' idiot. I was initially willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, but after hearing him say things like "they are the twin terminators of Sacramento", "I will no longer be the terminator, I will be the collectonator", and "I just realized I think I have a part for you in Terminator 4" I seriously think he's retarded. How can anyone vote for someone that would rather make stupid movie references than actually talk about his plans or his agenda or what he'll do to fix things.

Arnold

don't badmouth Arnold man.

He single handedly took out an alien from outer space.

I'd rather see Bustamante as governor of California. That way, when he fails to fix the problems in California, anger in that state could be generalized from Gray Davis to the Democrats, helping the GOP in the 2004 elections.

[BustaMike]

Which one was that?

I know he saved Mars, tried to kill Sarah Connor, saved John Connor twice, foiled a kindergarten kidnapping plot, killed an evil sorceress (and an wizard for that matter), got cloned but then foiled the evil plot, saved Miami from terrorists with Jamie Lee Curtis, saved Vanessa Williams with a gun that shoots through walls, but I don't remember him killing an alien.

That was Predator

I like the idea of Arnold, but I dunno if he'd make a good governor. I listened to the debate a bit on the radio, and he didn't seem that on top of things. Too hostile and unclear.

I actually like Tom and that Green guy.

[Shi Huangdi]

Hey Ozzy, how come the libertarians aren't factoring at all in this race?

[Odin]

Cali is extemely liberal, something fishy is going on if a republican wins, QED.

just blame it on the voting machines

The companies that make them are in the Republicans' pockets, I wouldn't be suprised if they were rigged, why do you think they were made without a paper record? To hide the evidence.

I remember someone has a quote of Fez in his sig that I'd like to show you:

The numbers Boris brought up dispute my numbers, and therefore they are wrong.
