I don't think he would give us more new gun laws. When I was in H.S. I used to be a puller up at the Oak Tree Gun Club and he was there shooting trap all the time.

How ironic if the Terminator really is in favor of gun control...maybe he just wants us to be better shots. That is good gun control. :D

If you get someone too conservative there is no way he will win. A moderate Republican is better than any Dem in by opinion. But lets give him a chance to state his views. I don't think most of us know all that much about him.
I guess there is some hope :D
Go Arnold

I'm worried that Arnold is a RINO ("Republican In Name Only") and won't be as strong as we need him to be (we need someone who has the courage to cut spending and get this state back on the road to fiscal recovery).
Take a look at his wife and her lineage. She's from one of the most Democratic of families in this country's history. And from what I hear the "Termninator" is not the "dominator" at his house.
Scary thing is there are over 200 people running for governor and the list is growing daily. Because of his name, he has to be the leading candidate (sorry Hoss) and he stands a great chance of being our next governor. I only hope he's up to the task.
It will be fun to watch Gray Davis' shredding machine (election campaign) get a hold of Arnold - whatever skeletons he has in his closet will soon be out for everyone to see. This is gonna be interesting!

Dan ow true that is. Unfortunately after Clinton you really need to also look at the homefront. I am sure that the wives of all the Presidents had some say in their husbands decisions but it seems to be getting more so lately. I don't see it with Bush and this is only a Governorship but it all plays the same. My .02
I understand MagicDAN, but just because his wife is from the Kennedy family ain`t really shit. Arnold as a man I fear. Arnold as a business man,,,ahhh I have alot of respect. Joe Weilder(Weidder-can`t get it BudLight) :p as a business man, I fear. Joe took Arnold and made him, exploited him, turned him into some serious cash return and lead him on the right path. On his own as governor? Come on bra. Better vote for me. Or the chick with the huge tits. Even with age and that pink Corvette I`d lay some severe pipe.

It's now between Arnold and Davis if anyone likes it or not.
I'll take Arnold.
I think Arnold will win it easily.
Under Davis, I'll be paying over $1500 in car registrations next year.
HOSS:
I've been told car and truck registrations are flat rate for all vehicles in Louisiana, and pretty low. Any truth to that? How much is it?
In Calif it varies on Vehicle value, and is high.

One step at a time guys. You can't have someone too conservative come into the race and expect to win. Don't forget that Davis won the seat he is in now. That shows you what type of voters we are dealing with. I don't think its realistic to expect a super conservative Republican to win in this state, its just too liberal here. If Arnold is only half the Republican we have heard he is than we are taking steps in the right direction. We need to back Arnold up or we're gonna be stuck with tripple car registration, illegals having drivers licenses, and astronomical deficits.

Yes Casanova you are correct. I wouldn`t dare single out wieghts or values for anything. It does however go by BlueBook for registration/title transfers. You can donate 1 time every year to family members for no tax. I`ll do the same there in Cali. All I need is to back establish my residency for 6. I`m sure we can do that with someone here.
Hey Cali,,,,don`t be a loser again.
Just another tip from you know who.

I heard Arnie on Conway and Steckler tonight on 97.1 talking about what he did today. Blah Blah Blah, he got the ok, but other than that, I think he has some good ideas, his priorities are to get the movies back in Cali, good idea, we are loosing SOOOOO much money to Canada, its gross. He has the conviction to get things like this to happen. He is going to put the school system on its feet, as opposed to the gutter its laying in now. Obviously the guy has the name, that alone will get him many many votes, but people know he is not some greedy bastard making decisions to crash and burn the economy. He is strong and fierce when it comes to talking about what he believes in, Davis cracks like a thin sheet of glass the second the camera hits him and he is a weak pansie and I cant WAIT to see him gone. About this Darrell Issa guy, I'm curious to see what he pulls out, after all he is the one who got the ball rolling and bank rolled the recall. Riordon isnt running if Arnie did, smart man. All the other candidates arent shit, Issa and Schwarzenegger, I think, are going to be the two to watch. Wheewwww, I'm done.
Just watched Lenno. I am bowing out. Arnold is a solid. I`d vote for him. Give him ashot. Like he said, " No one can pay me off, I have plenty of money". That`s honest. Call it grass roots. I call it plain ol honesty. Thats you guy people. He wants you to have the stae again like ya`ll did in the 60`s, 70`s ,80`s and lost it in the 90`s. Why do you think so many moved there? I wanted to but didn`t. **** gangs, **** punks with no respect for anyone, **** you if you don`t like me. Take it back,,,its yours anyway. I`m goin ` to bed. **** Bud Light and Winston.

He is 1 of 511 candiates (as of this morning) that are running. Which tells me everone thinks they can run the state better that Gray Davis. Rather than man up to his mistakes he is pushing lawsuit after lawsuit trying to delay and stop the recall. What is really pissing me off is in the new CA "Budget" there is money being used to fight the recall. :mad: The dumbass got himself in the mess he should pay for it himself. Issa and and many others have created web sites and had many donations to get the ball rolling on the recall and have made it happen. That little bastard Gray is still using OUR money to pay for his fight. I never have voted for you so don't use my tax paying money.

You guys are right, Arnold is very moderate. But like you said, only a moderate republican can be elected in California.
Pete Wilson, the last Republican Governor was a moderate too.
I think all the others names are irrelevant.
Its Arnold vs. Davis. I hope Davis gets terminated. (and I hope there are not too many puns either)

Arnold said on TV once when they asked him about the funniest thing he had ever seen... his reply was the "the look on the face of Maria (Shriver's) family when they found out he was a republican"
Simon was more of a true conservative but he had his ass handed to him. Although he was kind of a novice and no match for a seasoned veteran like Davis.

Larry took a bullet for his beliefs and still has yet to back down, He has MY VOTE Davis did not reduce the car tax. That was done by Wilson. It was a multi year reduction and some of it went into effect under Davis, but he can not be credited with doing any of it.

OL This is correct. It does not take a rocket scientist to fix what is wrong out here, just a responsible adult. All the gov has to do is pressure the legislature to pass some real workmans comp reform that will bring Ca's rates more in line with the rest of the nation's. Then have the guts to veto all of the nutty spending increases, tax hikes, and restrictions they will undoubtably keep trying to pass and in a few years our economy will catch up.
Of course, the workmans comp issue is the toughest challenge, because he will have a legislature that is largely corrupt and anti business to deal with. However, due to his star status and the national attention he would recieve, he would have a bully pulpit like no other gov has ever had. And at the present time there are still enough republicians in the legislature to protect his vetos from overides.
P.S. I know these are not Ca's only issues, but by doing the above he could show Ca to have some responsible leadership and thus make it much more likely that our state could get help by the feds etc in other areas, ie education money etc. Right now, if I ran the Federal Gov, I would not help Ca with one dime of tax money, because under our current leadership it would just be throwing away good money after bad.

Arnold may be another waste of your state's time. Dont get me wrong I like the guy but for the next gov to whip your state into shape, he is going to be hated by many.
If he is done with the movie making than it is possible. You need to find out if he has good people in consideration for his "team". That will make or break him. Consultant's from private industry would be best. They have nothing to gain or loose politically. They are just there to do a job.
If he is not done with movies and does not assemble a good "team" then I dont think he will do what is needed to the state budget because he will not want piss off a bunch of powerful people who have agenda's of their own....

unfortunatly I don't think we will ever get to vote Arnold in. I personally think that just before the election when its obvious that Davis is flamin he's going to resign and hand the governership to Bustimonte another bought off liberal clown and we are going to be right back in the same shit we are trying to climb out of now!

That could of happened before the petitions were counted. But now, even if he quits, the recall vote takes place and a new replacement is selected by the voters. Back in 1910 we must of had a legislature who still believed in that tired old notion of thinking things through, because they anticipated that political party hacks would think of this move. :D :D :D

Trust me, if they're making T4 and he's in it then he can find a way to make a movie while governor. It will be even easier if things are going well and a chimpanzee could do better than Gray Davis.

Larry took a bullet for his beliefs and still has yet to back down, He has MY VOTE Kiltroy, I hope you do a little more home work before you go and vote. The tripling of the car tax is just that 3X, so if you pay $500 a year now expect to pay $1500 next year. It wasn't Davis that lowered the tax it was Gov Wilson and it took affect durning Davis's term. Remember Davis is the one who said he wouldn't raise it, guess what he did. He said a couple months ago he wouldn't support illegals getting drivers license's, now since he wants the hispanic vote he now is pushing for it to be law. Look in the dictionary you will see ***** = Pay for Vote Davis

Car tax dealio... just seems a little strange to me that most other states can get by with far less reg. fees per vehicle than this and most with far less cars to tax. It's a bs deal with Davis just grabbing for anything he can.
I heard recently through the grapevine that there's a recent osha directive too, to fine hard and fine heavy for anything and everything. Like within the last month or so. Nice biz climate there Grayboy. If I could easily leave Ca I would in a heartbeat. Those who can already are.

Better roads and infrastructure than CA.
Better maintained parks than CA.
Better schools than CA.
Much higher bond rating.

They have their share of problems, but at least their state has somewhat responsible adult leadership. Davis has handed control of this state over to a handfull of loons....
