Between Arnold and McClintock, Republicans got 60% of the votes.


Bad idea to assume that this was a vote for republicans. First of all,
Arnold is anything but a typical republican.


McClintock WAS a typical Republican, though. Factor in the folks who
wanted to vote for him but voted for Arnold as more electable, the
large turnout, and you might possibly be seeing a sea change in CA
politics. The Democratic party is imploding. Their 2004 strategy -
tax increases - was just repudiated.

Second, the whole issue was
about trying to do something about business as usual, not about putting a
republican in the governor's office.


If that's the case, why did Arianna and the porn star fare so poorly?

The real fun won't start tomorrow with Davis doing anything. The real fun
starts with the criminal cases generated by the sexual harassment and
assault cases. You think those 15 women are going to let the issue drop?
Don't think so.


Sure, the Dems are gonna backroll them all the way to court, just to
try to keep the new governor distracted. Of course, the judge will
throw them out one by one. Even Davis' "emergency" appointees will
have to do that when there's no credible evidence.

I'm also surprised that the media didn't seem to take note that

along with
the accusations of admiring Hitler there was a little known fact that didn't
get much media attention: Arnold's father was a brownshirt Nazi during WWII,
and he wasn't forced to wear the uniform.


And your point would be...? What did YOUR father do in the war? Does
that define who you are? B. F. D.
