If I was an advisor, and McCain should be thrilled that I'm not, I'd tell him to go to NY as well. Stir up the PUMA vote.  :fuelfire:

exactly - NY,CA,MA all went Hillary. That has to be the reason for the decision. Losing any of those states will probably kill Obama's campaign. Even though Massachusetts is comparatively small EV-wise compared to CA, news of a McCain surge in the Commonwealth will energize the Republicans and PUMAs on the west coast.

AND NY ? Hillary's State ? Need I say More ?

I really dont understand why not.  They elected Arnold twice and he and McC are little different.

Good for him for not ceding anything.

I think is Real Change message (and Sarah Palin) might be able to capture the very fertile minds of my fellow Californians.

Arnold has proved himself to be to the left of McCain.  Arnold as proved himself to the left of uh-bam-uh.

He may do just that - I know he's going to make a stand in New Jersey and New Hampshire along with Pennsylvania. He could win all three.

I agree with freedumb2003 - California has gone blue since 1992, but that wouldn't happen if it weren't for L.A. and the Bay Area. From the rural extreme northern part of the state, those people there were very conservative, the hick vote could swing it back. I don't care if there's more registered Democrats than Republicans in the state, the presidential candidate has won when the gap there was much wider than it is right now. Plus, there's that gay marriage referendum on the ballot that'll smoke out the social conservatives.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhnold is a RINO, but he's also still very popular and a big McCain supporter.
