He's now a major player in this race. He deserves to have the full spotlight put on his family.

Only a handful of Democrats know either one of the candidates. Both of them are starting virtually from scratch.

This guy has a history of bringing forward these grandiose schemes that basically melt into a puddle of water on the floor.

That's why Arnold has loaded up his campaign with a bunch of Bush-Cheney operatives. They really understand how to appeal to voters in the bluest state in America.

They can't snap their fingers and do symbolic things and turn it all around. It ain't that easy -- particularly when you have the antipathy that now exists against him.

This is a substantial (advertising) buy. We're already at a point in these three markets where you would expect to be later in the campaign. This is not a symbolic buy -- but a desire to reach voters and move numbers.

We know how much we're going to have to spend. This is a (spending) level we think we can sustain.

Phil better take notice. If he wants to try to replicate the Roberti campaign of 1994, he's up against a team that knows how to fight back. I've been accused of a lot of things, but not being willing to fight back isn't one of them.

Phil is running a Walter Mondale campaign -- nail down the special-interest groups early, get all the big-name officeholders to endorse you and expect it will roll you into office. It didn't work for Mondale -- and he lost 49 states.
