It also included some of the fringe gubernatorial hopefuls, such as Ned Roscoe, the self-professed "smokers' candidate," who Californians will consider at the first statewide recall election in history Oct. 7.

Had a great time at the rally yesterday. Since I was coming from the bay area, it struck me that I had to go through Davis to get to Sac.!

If all smokers all over the U.S. got together and voted for the same candidates imagine what we could do.
