This budget process went more smoothly than any budget process in the about the last ten years. The WP glossed over that little fact.

The special election has several items on it that are important. Whether you like Schwarzenegger or not, he deserves some support when it comes to them.

The Washington Post would love nothing more than to cut the legs out from under Schwarzenegger. Sadly some ignorant duffuses on this forum would love nothing more than to front for the Washington Post and it socialsist/democrat allies in their efforts to do so.

Make no mistake about it, Schwarzenegger hasn't been an exemplory governor by conservative standards. None the less, there are times when it's going to be necessary to support him and his causes, even if we don't like other things like big spending and other negatives.

Silly me. I thought the impetus behind the Davis recall was precisely that!
Silly me.

I voted for Arnold and will vote for him again.
But things are not going too well. There is a general feeling of unease when the losers somehow manage to continue to wield power and control spending far out of proportion to their importance.

What I can say about Arnold is he took the wheel and steered us away from the rocks Davis had us heading for. Other than that, I see little greatness in what he brings to California.

I can't stand that almost every Governor we put in office has dreams of higher office and plays to that role. Even ineligible Arnold.
