Do you think Arnold will get the Indian vote?
I'd be pretty pissed off if I was a California Indian.
I know they are coming out with an ad disputing Arnold's
accusation that they don't pay taxes in California.

You wouldn't think that someone running for office
would want to anger a whole ethnic group but Arnie's
getting advice from Pete Wilson.

4. an antecdote about Arnie and Natives
I was camping in Idaho and we drove through this very ritzy yacht club community. I was appalled to see a store selling wooden indians--so I went in and asked him if would sell black jockeys, too, and whether he thought selling these cigarstore indians was wrong. i was very polite.

The first thing the owner said was the Arnold had bought one and keeps it in his house!

Arnold is scary and not good for Natives.

5. Double Standard

Did you ever notice special interest money is only bad when it's going to Dems? I thought it was really racist that they emphasized INDIAN gaming money. Why can't Indian tribes have some influence? I guess people are upset that the Indian Reservation land are not worthless enough.
