The Dims really stepped on their weenies with this one. Ye Gads they have been doing that a lot.

It hasn't been tabulated, and there is no way to verify it, but I am sure that a significant portion of Arnold's votes were solidified in the aftermath of the "open mike" incident in which the Dims discussed worsening the state's fiscal woes for partisan gain.

This is exactly the kind of crapola that pisses people off the worse. Lying is one thing. Politicians are expected to lie and for the most part, most do. Those who don't are still accused of lying and since most Americans have neither the time or energy to figure out who is lying they generally assume they all are.

But this REALLY stings people. This tells the voters that the Dims are cynically playing them for chumps -- and no one, especially a chump, likes to find out he has been played for a chump.

I wonder how Senator Roberts feels? Or if he realizes he has been played for a chump?
