AHNULD NOW!:

California governor calls on opponent to drop out of race because of photo gaffe (ERICA WERNER, 10/9/02, The Associated Press)

Republican candidate Bill Simon conceded Wednesday that his allegation that Gov. Gray Davis illegally accepted a campaign check inside the state Capitol "is now in question." Davis called on him to drop out of the governor's race.

Mr. Davis is right. Bill Simon should take one for the Party and bow out of the race. Arnold Schwarzenegger stands ready to replace him and would likely beat Gray Davis by 15+ points. One can hardly wait to hear Democrats and the NY Times explain why this would be unjust. Posted by Orrin Judd at October 9, 2002 8:09 PM
