| IF ARNOLD WINS.......THIS IS HOW HE WILL DO IT! |
|
He's doing it already....He's very short on specific proposals, but he's taking a page out of Bush's book....telling the people they are the"best" people in the "best" and "most free country" in the world, "God bless America!".....The American public eat it up. It works for Bush so I guess he thinks it will work for him too!....:shrug:

| 1. I never thought I'd say this, since I've always been fascinated |

with CA, but I'm really glad I don't live there right now, and I can't imagine having to tolerate Governor Ahh-nold!

| 2. I have a feeling he would not be quite so liberal as he is portraying |
|
himself, if he actually was elected....I think there's something of the control freak about him and it would be his way or the highway.

| 3. Just realized...it might seem like I'm putting Americans down |
|
That's not how I mean it to be...I live close to the American border and we have a great cross-border relationship...I was just pointing out that I can't see any reason for Bush's relatively good poll numbers, when he has done NOTHING to earn them. :)

| 4. Actually, if the Supreme Court had stayed out of the |
|
Florida election mess and if the steps for contested elections were followed as set forth in the Florida Constitution, I am sure we would have President Gore in office today, who did win the popular vote. So more Americans did not buy Bush's BS than fell for it.
I think the only way Arnold will prevail is if Democrats are lazy and don't vote, or if the elections are tampered with.

| 7. Keep that in mind for our nominee. |
|
If Arnold Schwarzenegger wins the governorship, it says something very serious about the state of the American electorate, and I hope that the Democrats don't ignore that lesson.

| 8. Democrats aren't ignoring it. The rest of the electorate |
|
isn't paying attention to the fact that their voting rights are being eroded before their eyes.

| 9. If Bill Clinton is advising Gray Davis as it has been reported |
|
I have to believe that they will have to do Presidential style get out the vote efforts. If they are able to impress that we will lose the 2004 election if they don't vote in the recall I feel the Democrats will be O.K. I've noted Hollywood (via Tom Hanks and others) is out there spreading the word on Arnold. We should all we willing to send Move-On a couple bucks to help the Democrats in this CA recall thing. It is imperative that the pugs lose this one big time!
