So if the Republicans AND Conservatives are FOR it, the Democrats and the Unions are against it,you automatically deduce that you should vote against it. That's what you just said.
Please explain why voting WITH the Democrats against the Republicans and conservative is a "conservative" way of voting.
It's simple. I'm suggesting a NO on Prop 76 because it allows Schwarzenegger to borrow more money allowing California to continue to spend more than it takes in through its already confiscatory tax structure.
As to the implications that I agree with the Democrat Party in their opposition to Prop 76 I offer this observation. The Democrat Party is not opposed to the borrowing. They'd prefer to raise taxes to match revenues to spending but they aren't opposed to the borrowing if that's all they can get. I'm not in agreement with the Democrats on Prop 76.
As to the implication that I'm opposed to the CAGOP policy on this matter; I most certainly am opposed. In fact, as the CAGOP drifts further left, I'm opposed to an increasing number of their policies, from increasing the size of government, to extending the public safety net to alien squatters without qualification, to supporting social/fiscal liberals for elected office. From my perspective the CAGOP has so abandoned its principals that their support of any measure automatically raises a red flag for me that warns: BEWARE: MODERATION.
As far as opposing conservatives I'm not aware of any conservatives, including McClintock, who support the borrowing. Their opposition to more borrowing is clear and part of the public record. Their public pronouncements regarding Prop 76, required to fend off the type of vicious Republican attacks seen in the recall election, are understandable from my perspective. That's politics.
