	Tom McClintock’s bully pulpit
		Tom McClintock will be particularly well positioned to lead with these issues since he has already led with them, most obviously the car tax, for years.
		McClintock, on the contrary, is known precisely for saying what he means, for working to keep his promises, and for insisting on real progress and suffering no false measures, no papering over, no phony Potemkin Village charades to fool the people while the politicians really do nothing.
		McClintock’s lieutenant governor candidacy gives Republicans a chance to recover from the squandered opportunities of the recall, a chance to make their bedrock case to the voters: look beyond the demagoguery to the complete effects of government, remember all the people and stop listening only to the loudest special interests, especially government union bosses.

		The Governor's crusade against "greenhouse gases" is, in fact, the single greatest impediment to the era of public works that he has promised, and the crusade for public works construction is the biggest impediment to reducing "greenhouse gases" that he has promised.

	Tom McClintock for Lt. Governor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		McClintock was the sometimes bristly, uncompromising conservative who won over many Californians with his principles, even though his social views were out of sync with many voters.
		McClintock, whose profile was raised in the 2003 recall, is usually a weak fund-raiser who has come oh-so-close to winning the state controller's office -- only to fail twice.
		The long-shot push to rescind the endorsement died down, and McClintock was a "linchpin" in restoring the peace, one of the governor's aides said.

	Tom McClintock for controller
		McClintock, whose fiscal conservatism seems to pervade every inch of his body, brings a 20-year reputation as one of the most frugal members of the California Legislature.
		McClintock said one of his first acts as controller would be to impanel a waste-scouring team along the lines of the Grace Commission that scrutinized the federal government for President Reagan in the 1980s.
		McClintock, for example, is rightly critical of the way Davis patched together a budget "solution" that assures another big shortfall next year.

	McClintock Does Conservatives No Favor
		Tom McClintock believes he is helping the conservative cause in California by staying in the governor's race.
		McClintock, who ignores the polls when they show him losing by double digits to both Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bustamante, extols the surveys when they show the voters think he is the candidate most prepared to be governor.
		McClintock and his supporters would have you believe that if you don't hold out for your principles until the bitter end, you are a sellout.

	TRAGIC FLAW... OF CALIFORNIA SENATOR TOM McCLINTOCK
		Tom has a responsibility to his principles, his family, his party and the state of California.
		However, as a leader Tom is ultimately responsible for "the welfare, discipline and tactical deployment of his troops" and he must bear blame for mistakes.
		IF McClintock really cared about fixing the tragic problems he ‘says’ are imperative, he would join Bill Simon, Darryl Issa, Peter Uberoth and the county republican chairs and for the good of the state, the party, his political viability, AND his family, support the one man who CAN win.

	Help elect Tom McClintock as Lt. Governor! - THR
		Tom McC has repeatedly made the mistake of being antiabortion and announcing it, even though it is not really relevant to his propsective duties as Gov (this during the recall election).
		Thus, Tom McC would be significantly more likely to win a general CA election waving 5 live, firing AK47s, with 10 'saturday night specials' in his belt and holding a dead baby, than he ever would if he maintained his 'pro life' stance and joined the Brady Bunch.
		Tom is already a State Senator http://republican.sen.ca.gov/web/mcclintock/ this would just be a stepping stone for him to become the Governor.

		McClintock ran an admirable, yet underfunded, campaign for State Controller in 1994 which saw him fall just a few points short of being elected to statewide office before his 40th birthday.
		Assemblyman McClintock received the Badge of Honor Award this year as a result of his championing of the car tax cut which is now law.
		It is largely due to the steadfast determination of Assemblyman Tom McClintock that the car tax became law.

	California Insider - A Weblog by Sacramento Bee Columnist Daniel Weintraub
		One of the untold stories of this campaign is the degree to which Democrats have helped Tom McClintock stay competitive in the race to replace.
		There is definitely waste to be cut from the budget, but most of what the state spends from its $71 billion general fund goes to people providing services, such as teachers and doctors, or directly to the poor in welfare payments or aid to the aged, blind and disabled.
		The Democrats are aiding and abetting McClintock, just as they helped Bill Simon in last year’s Republican primary, because they fear the election of a moderate Republican, and they know that such a development would help Republicans regain a foothold in California politics.

	For Tom McClintock: May 1940
		Tom McClintock has spent years in the relative political wilderness — defeated for statewide office and without a leadership position in the Legislature — essentially for the same reasons.
		McClintock has never been afraid to speak the unvarnished truth, even if people seemed more comfortable with the fantasies woven in Sacramento.
		But because they thought he could not win — in spite of their admiration and good feelings toward him personally — and because they were desperate to be rid of Gray Davis, Californians took the safe route and voted for Arnold Schwarzenegger.

	legal redux: California: Tom McClintock for Lieutenant Governor
		McClintock has similar plans for programs that are duplicated on state and local levels.
		The thinking was that, because McClintock would draw votes away from his Republican comrade and end up allowing Bustamante to pull off the victory, he should pull out.
		McClintock chose not to withdraw citing the differences he and Arnold had on important social issues; if he withdrew, voters would have no credible candidate who was both a fiscal and social conservative.

	Debates: Peter Robinson vs. Hugh Hewitt on California on National Review Online
		There may be a few steely eyed fanatics on the McClintock side, but the overwhelming number of Tom's supporters aren't offering to march over a cliff with him, just suggesting, as am I, that McClintock remain in the race another couple of weeks.
		A few absentee ballots may get cast for McClintock that would otherwise have been cast for Schwarzenegger, but very, very few (our pal John Fund, who's doing perhaps the best national reporting on the recall, assured me the other day that none of the political pros is at all worried about these early absentee ballots).
		McClintock cannot win, and the only shred of an argument that he can comes from the pollsters at the Los Angeles Times, a paper that thinks Robert Scheer is mainstream.

	Tom McClintock -- The Conscience of a Conservative?
		Tom's win-at-any-cost mindset has him collaborating with leftist groups who want nothing more than a divided Right to throw the election to Bustamante.
		McClintock is now collaborating with Cruz Bustamante to boycott the California Broadcasters Association's debate on the 24th as a means of showing up Arnold Schwarzenegger.
		Thus far, McClintock has claimed he stands for principle, but it is obvious that his hopeless candidacy is based on personal ambition.

	John J. Miller on Tom McClintock & California Recall on National Review Online
		McClintock, a 47-year-old state senator from Ventura County, is the one candidate in the race who can honestly say he's surging.
		McClintock is doing so well because he has become the clear favorite of California conservatives who are disturbed by Schwarzenegger's refusal to rule out tax hikes to balance the Golden State's budget, to say nothing of Schwarzenegger's social liberalism on issues such as abortion.
		First, McClintock's withdrawal would have Republicans betting everything on Schwarzenegger's success — and if one of those damaging rumors about the actor turns out to have political traction, McClintock's candidacy becomes a handy insurance policy.

		McClintock has made it clear he has disassociated himself from Gibson - in fact, unfortunately, it seems he has used this advantageously to promote himself/his campaign - the story has been all over the media.
