5. i would probably vote coleman over arnold
seriously, if it was just arnold vs gary coleman , at this point i would probably vote for coleman considering what an asshole arnold is being. with his not giving figures, thinking the rest of the people are as dumb as he is. and the wonderful ted kennedy is NOT supporting arnold either.

11. support doesn't always mean vote
one can support or oppose a candidate even if they can't vote for them. bill clinton isn't a california voter, but supporting davis and opposes recall. same with ted kennedy.

8. Are you joking?
Coleman is a cartoon. He hasn't accomplished nearly what Arnold has, all politics aside

18. Sure.....
Arnold grew up poor as dirty in a little Austrian town.
He put a single-minded focus into coming to America and achieving success. He has become a box-office giant, married into a prominent family, and become fantastically wealthy and popular. This is a guy who couldn't speak a word of English until he was 21.
I would call those accomplishments fairly substantial.
Now....what the hell has Gary Coleman ever done? Become a cartoon because he has lacks a growth hormone and said 'What choo talking about, Willis"? After that he got on drugs and was down and out for awhile. Quite a comparison, huh?

7. Smart move
That would draw the gay vote out, most likely, and other candidates would probably not touch it with a 10-foot pole.

However, he cannot legalize gay marriage, right? Isn't there a federal law against it or something?

Who cares, dogs and cats can get married for all I care. It has nothing to do with family values, but with legal rights.

12. I'm for Gary
I saw most if not all of the Diffr'nt Strokes episodes and I feel like I practically know the guy.

If you think about the hope that Diffr'nt Strokes stood for, Gary could embody that politically.

I'm glad he forked over the $ to file, it at least makes a statement, even if belittled by the unaware.

15. But as a safety measure...
Edited on Thu Aug-21-03 01:01 AM by Oracle
We can't waste our vote. Vote NO on the recall and vote Democrat...this is no joke!

Coleman is more qualified than Cruz? Or Davis? And fucking dip-shit pussy Arnold? Arnold will become the Republican's golden boy, indeed...he's a fucking Republican, will fall in line with Republican agenda & ideology, meetings with Ken Lay, Rove and he's friends with the fascist Bush crime family.
