E-mail: “Odd that Wilson says Schwarzenegger is not as conservative as he (Wilson) is…on social issues. That must mean Arnold is really off the reservation.

Wilson refers to McClintock as not a team player. But at the 1996 Rep Convention in San Diego, Wilson KNEW he would not win on throwing out the pro-life plank. But he staged a major confrontation — to embarrass Dole, et. al. as much as possible. That’s a team player?

He blames Lungren for his defeat — a fair charge. But he doesn’t tell you that his people, including Dan Schnur, were involved in that campaign, nor does he tell you that his communications guy, Sean Walsh, played a major role in the Simon campaign.

He’ll probably tell you that the Riordan primary was awful; he won’t tell you that Riordan’s `chief strategist’ who made all key decisions was Wilson’s long time confidante and media consultant, and who is key in Schwarzenegger. That’s Don Sipple.”
