Arnold press conference 2PM EST

[rocktivity]

Is Bustamante going to get equal time? Are they going to cover any of HIS press conferences? You'd think Arnold was the only person running! I understand Maria will be taking a leave of absence. He says he's a passionate and serious person who will represent anybody. Well, we know he's running--are we going to hear anything new?

1. SHHHHH

The Robot is speaking!!!!!!!

I can just see Rove talking into his nerd watch......."Come in Giant robot....Come in........"

[liberalhistorian]

5. I simply cannot believe anyone in CA

would even consider voting for Ahh-nuld! At least, though, he's not as bad as some of the other repukes in the running. I never thought I'd say this, since I've always wanted to live in CA, but I thank God I'm not living there right now!

[Generic Other]

19. Go Back Tobar! Go Back!

Yeek. Calling all Japanese monsters: Godzilla, Gamera, Mothera...

[glarius]

2. Arnold is running things already it seems...

This whole thing is really kind of sickening to watch! And now his Democratic wife is saying how wonderful this Republican is...Bizzare! :puke:

[JustJoe]

3. Question:

"Do you think it's appropriate to
not answer any questions?"

Awnoo: I cahnt heeeear you!

[rocktivity]

4. Huh? That's it? It's over? He just said thank you and good night?

Hmmm, CNN's doing a special on the recall at 10PM. Well, you Californians have sixty days to convince the public that this recall is nothing short of an right-wing coup!

6. He acts like he's campaigning for an Oscar rather than Governor

[VolcanoJen]

7. CNN's Bob Franken was just whoopin' some ass

Here's what CNN reporter Bob Franken said to Arnold in the press crush, cameras running, mini-transcript, thanks to my Tivo:

Franken: "When are you going to get to our questions, sir? Do you think it's appropriate not to be prepared when you run for Governor to have the substantive answers to questions that might be asked?"

Arnold: "Let me make the decision..."

Franken: "Aren't the press supposed to be the ones, sir, who inquire about a candidates qualifications?"

Blow-off by Arnold and Maria after that.

[glarius]

10. Arnold is obviously a control freak...HE DECIDES WHEN HE SPEAKS!!!

He also decided when his wife would speak!.....I repeat he's a control freak....

[jiacinto]

11. Yeah I noticed

But I wonder if people will care.

[twilight]

24. fuggin Seig Heil!

Holy shyte! Not ANOTHER one!!!!!!

:nuke:

[chillwindblowing]

8. no quailifications ,therefore I deserve to be the gov of ca li forn ia

Am I in a really bad dream ??? Someone please wake me up.......:scared:

[DeathvadeR]

18. Fuq it let him win...........

let him and the gop take another fall for not beign able to handle a job...Cause the Cali Crisis is big and messy and what are they gonna do raise taxes????? Shit Isn't tht Lt.Governor just as much to blame for the mess as Davis.... What mess anyways, How in the hell can they be in trouble? Cali taxes are damn near the worst anywhere.....

And why in the Fuq......are schools and Social services the first things looked at whenever a state starts having problems?? Ya its a big piece of the pie, but time and time again they neglect other aspects of that very same pie astounds me...

[Cha]

21. Way I hear it...enron is to "Blame"!

Let the Dems get some word out about that! :kick:

[DeathvadeR]

30. whahahahahaa

[Cha]

31. Thanks! Dude!

[twilight]

27. yep like funding this kind of shyte!

Perfect example - $68 million + for this crap and they CUT assistance to the blind, elderly and the disabled OUT!

HOW GODDAMN DISGUSTING AND SEIG HEIL AHNULLLLDDDDDD!

:nuke:

9. Maria Shriver gave a ringing endorsement to Arnold

Had you watched the Faux coverage, Maria said that Arnold will be inclusive to Democrats, Independents, Republicans, and minorities. Maria said that Arnold will work hard to bring back California to where it should be at.

[VolcanoJen]

13. Cool! So, his wife is on his side.

How reassuring.

I must say I find it rather patronizing when an esteemed member of the Kennedy family pretty much tells the California voter, "Dude, don't worry, Arnold will take care of Dems, too."

Sigh...

[IndianaGreen]

16. Like McCauliff told the Democrats to stick with Davis?

Davis is toast and has been toast for so long that only the most blind partisans are still in denial.

Face it! The vast majority of Californians want Davis out.

[Cha]

22. Very Frickin' "patroninzing"!

[Generic Other]

20. Let Uncle Teddy endorse him

His silence speaks volumes for me.

[Cha]

23. "Uncle Teddy" has already made a statement that he Doesn't

"endorse" him!

[glarius]

12. Bill Schneider (from the right wing American Enterprise Institute) is

pushing Arnold, obviously....He calls himself a political anylist....what a joke....He's so partisan....

[VolcanoJen]

15. Schneider makes one very good point though....

... how many of these "fans" that are turning up at Ah-nold events are actual voters? Will he be able to register these "fans" to vote while it still counts?

Let's hope not,
Jennifer ;-)

[Snellius]

14. Dems threatening to recall whatever Repub may win

Fun twist. FOX News is reporting that California Democrats are organizing to recall whichever Republican may when the recall. And so on and so on. Ad infinitum.

[IndianaGreen]

17. I am sure that will get them a lot of votes...

This is not the time for a pre-pubescent temper tantrums! We have in Cruz Bustamante an excellent candidate that has experience and that lacks all of the flaws of Davis.

We should rally around Bustamante instead of being overcomed with the same arrogance that doomed the Democratic majority in the House in 1994.

[drdigi420]

25. i think it's a great way

to showcase that this is a farce to begin with

[Cha]

26. Lot's of Hispanic Americanos in California who should come

out for Bustamante if he is a Good Dem! :kick:

[IndianaGreen]

28. Cruz Bustamante is an excellent candidate, very well qualified

and I won't let the fact that he is Latino cloud my support for him. :eyes:

The question is which way will the independent voters vote.

[Cha]

29. Yeah! Will those independents go for arniethejokeblarney or

for a person who is really qualified for the Huge task?
