ugh. family and politics.
Oct. 7th, 2003 11:03 ami love my dad, but i just can't stand his most of his politics. he hopes that arnold doesn't win only partly because he doesn't think he's a viable candidate for the job (an opinion i respect). dad's main concern is that having arnold in sacramento could hurt the republican party, hence making it more difficult for dubya to be re-elected.
my response - "that actually might be the only positive outcome of arnold being elected."
dad and i aren't going to talk politics for a while.

Date: 2003-10-07 04:19 pm (UTC)Do you think it's a name recognition/celebrity/popularity contest thing?
Is it because Republican seems to be the thing to be these days (thanks in part to that scary, inept, war-mongering pres. of ours)?
Or is it a combination "action hero will kick the bad guy's asses" thing?
People, for god's sake, IT'S ARNOLD SWARZENEGGER! Get a grip on yourselves!!
