he's a fucking actor how the fuck people took him serious???
It's simple why people voted for him. Democratic leadership has ran california into the ground. It's hurt them where they hurt the most, in their pocketbook. Minorities don't care as much about this, because many are low wage earners, and don't have to pay taxes at the end of the year because of our graded tax schedule. Gray Davis made huge, huge mistakes while in office. The democratic california Senate made huge, huge mistakes, and are still in office. Californians were tired of the democratic politics of the last 5 years.Gray Davis made a decision early on in the campaign; that he didn't want any credible democrats running against him; he felt that if they had no better democrat to vote for, the californian people (who are largely democrat) would vote no on the recall. Bustamante stabbed Davis in the back, and ran. Luckily, Bustamante has also been tainted by the inadequacy of the Davis adminstration, since he's lieutenant governor.In the end, Californians were tired of Davis's politics... I mean, you guys do realize that he accepted illegal campaign contributions from Indian reservations, correct? Why is their no outrage over this?With no democrat to elect, Californians simply elected the most moderate, charismatic candidate. Between Arnold, and Tom McClintock, californians voted almost 60% of the vote for REPUBLICANS, in a highly democratic state. The reason? The democratic party has shifted so far to the left, it alienates even DEMOCRATS. Most Democrats are moderates, and do not agree with the extreme liberal thinking of the california senate, of Davis' administration.
who would think somebody could win if this was happening during their campaign......-Only debate that he partcipated in was a debate with the questions handed to you before hand- Held Town hall meetings (invitation only)- Used movie quotes to "fire" up the people- Charges of groping etc etc- Apologizing for something he is denying...uhh wtf?- Bitching about special interest money with Davis...but receiving special interest from his "friends"...yea big time corporations are his "friends"- Promising he will not raise taxes. LOL oh yea thats gonna happen.
the main thing that set me off by him.. was mainly the fact that he would avoid questions that he didnt seem to have answer for... he wouldnt stay on subject... and no experience in the leadership roll.... he is not a good representive for california... in fact i think he should take his carpet bagging ass back to his own country... since he dislikes immigrates so much.... i voted this election.... and i would have like to see Cruz Bustamonte win... but i voted for davis..because i wasnt going to turn my back on someone who march with ceasar chavez... and fought for farm workers rights.. and all that good stuff..... in 4 months they just might recall him anyways.. californian seem to be confused by what is a good leader... and what is dumb ass... i forgot to say this.. i didnt actually vote for a candidate... i just voted no on the recall... and drew a line though all the candidates.... then voted no on the props.

but i voted for davis..because i wasnt going to turn my back on someone who march with ceasar chavez... and fought for farm workers rights.. and all that good stuff.....
i'm glad that arnold won, i voted for him, and i'm proud that i'm 1 of the people who are registered democrats that voted against gray davisand no bustamante would be more of a joke than schwartzanegger.....how the fuck are you going to be against the recall , yet vote for Bustamante , who is part of the problemand no California's problems didn't start with Pete Wilson that is STUPID as fuck to say. Pete wilson was WELL out of office (for a few years )when california problems started. Davis pussy footed around with the energy crisis, and his whole administration after his first 2-3 years started fucking up financially. Special interest spending anyone? I will admit Davis was a good governor for partially his first term. but he was no better than wilson.....go read on modern california history and you'll know what i'm talking about. now back to arnold......no shit he has no experience in politics.......but oh wait who are his relatives-in-laws....oh shit~! the KENNEDYS.... , also Arnold is a billionaire business man.......he has no need to profit off this and he's great with finances .....go look it up. His inexperience is good i think.....we don't had that and look where it got us........so it was either vote in the problems (davis bustamante) again, or vote in someone who wants honestly wants to help the state. I say let Arnold prove himslf first before we start jumping on him like Davis. and if this makes us look "dumb" to the rest of the world.......so fucking what! 22% of Britain thinks the Mona Lisa was done by Vincent Van Gogh.....again let the man prove himself before you hawk on him......who knows he might fuck us up , but look at his track record ......dude does better than well with most of the things he's accomplished

Simply put: California felt it was time to elect a republican.
