Have you noticed that neither Whitman nor Brown talk about our current Governor?
As an insider I can tell you that I know of NO candidate for Governor, Senator, Statewide candidate, or even city council in the smallest city, is asking for an endorsement from Arnold--no one. The media is not asking why Republican Arnold has not endorsed Republican Whitman.
"Two possibilities come to mind. First, it may be that Schwarzenegger has issues with Whitman, particularly with respect to their differences on AB 32 and Proposition 23. Schwarzenegger sees AB 32 as a job creator, while Whitman sees AB32 as a job killer, which is why it was so hard for Whitman to take a position on Proposition 23.
Second, it may be that Whitman has asked Schwarzenegger to stay out. That might seem odd until you see that Schwarzenegger's public approval now ranks with that of Gray Davis immediately before his demise. From Whitman's point of view, why ask for an endorsement from the captain of the Titanic when the ship is already below sea level?"
Maybe it is the $140 billion in deficit. Maybe it is the tripling of the bonded indebtedness in the seven Arnold years as Governor? Could it be that folks understand the AB 23 and SB 375 fraud? The 12.6% unemployment?
Or maybe, the fact he is leaving the State one step ahead of bankruptcy?
Do you want to be associated with Arnold if you were a candidate?
