Democrats need a bigger name in California to beat the republican machine.
Edited on Fri Aug-19-05 10:52 AM by LaPera
Please take this SF Chronicle poll...

Keep the democrats over-confident, and the Democrats will get complacent and do nothing, letting the polls speak for them and thinking they have it in the bag.

By letting the Democrats believe Musclehead is slipping they can win with the boring, no chance to win candidates they are offering right now, Phil Angelides and Steve Westly, (republicans are hoping and drooling at the prospects of those two losers), instead of some Democrat who is more exciting charismatic and magnetic...Remember it's the republicans who control these media outlets & polls (and the "Field Poll" is one of the most conservative of all the polls, the last thing they want to do is bring good news to the Dems)...BEWARE!

Absolutely the only way the Democrats have a chance to get back the governor's seat and keep the State out of the ultra right-wing religious fascist hands (who are again, drooling at the thought) IS to have someone with equal star status run on the Democrat side...Like a Warren Beatty, a George Clooney or a Robin Williams or an Alec Baldwin.

Unfortunately, it truly has come to this, in order to get so many voters with their heads up their ass, to pay attention!!!

It seems to me the republicans are right on schedule to bring in their huge money machine to close in and distort, smear, and steal the election with the republican owned and operated electronic voting machines.

As we watch the Democrats scream with happiness with these misleading poll numbers.

There is a lot of work to be done, to try and stop the republican money machine that will absolutely overwhelm the state a year from now... AND with the media's help!!!

No one can beat Schwarzenegger for Guv...NO ONE...Unless...

So many will vote for him just because of his action hero celebrity star, status...like all the people cheering for OJ, people don't think, they react, especially to celebrity-ism.

Millions in this State and the whole country for that matter are NOT loyal to any one party or ideology...The republicans have big plans for Arnold (Republican Senator Orin Hatch is already getting the ball rolling)...

The republicans are not under ANY circumstance going to let Arnold lose California, the republicans just stole the CA Secretary of States office a few month's ago and that's who counts the votes and the new republican Sec. of State is now bringing in electronic voting machines all over the state of California.

The republicans (as usual) are going to lie, cheat, smear, distort, using all their usual tactics to go along with a train-load of money, all the money that musclehead wants and needs so to keep California in the republicans hands...and the future (Arnold) of the republican party.

The media will have their republican owned corporate mainstream media doing all they can to keep Arnold's star rising & glowing, Schwarzenegger is their darling, he sells newspapers and boost ratings...The Dems need someone like that.

Again, unfortunately, it truly has come to this, to get people to pay attention!!!

I can not see any Democrat coming up against Arnold & the republican money machine that's going to beat him...

The ONLY way Democrats have a chance, is to have a democrat candidate of the same celebrity status as Schwarzenegger to run for Governor, with lots & lots of money and a Hollywood media machine behind them.

Even then, with the cheating republicans and their republican owned electronic voting machines...The outcome may have already been determined in Arnold's favor...with the slimey tactics used by republicans against the elected Democrat Secretary of State, Kevin Shelley is now gone. Arnold has appointed a republican Secretary of State, in the democrats place (who will be counting the votes) and is also allowing more and more of the republican owned electronic voting machines into the California, that democrat Shelley refused to let in the state, (and that’s why he was gotten rid of).

At least a Democrat, (Beatty) stood up and said what needed to be said...Did you see how the republicans reacted? "Let's see Beatty say those things in Orange Country" Spoiled babies all them republicans!

These same idiots in the California Democratic Party think they can win with an ordinary democrat politician running with a bunch of money…NO way will Rove and the republicans let Arnold lose, they will steal it before that would happen…Arnolds destiny is win California again and become President in 2012…that’s why the republicans will spend and lie and do whatever it takes to make sure Arnold will be elected again.

And these foolish Democrats running right now will get their 48 or 49% and lose, and these same idiots like CA Democratic party leader Art Torres will be saying well, we’ll get them next time. TOO LATE!!!

If the Democrats don’t run someone to match Arnold’s celebrity status, he can NOT be beat. Fuck the pollsters, or Union support or any other bullshit facts you may have…When the republican machine get rolling the Democrats will be crushed, unless he has that great Hollywood drawn and media behind him…The republican won’t be able to point the finger and say what does a celebrity know about politics…because of course they are running a Musclehead!
