By Ted Costa, Ted Costa, who drew up the original petition to recall Gray Davis, is chief executive of the anti-tax group People's Advocate.

In October, the people of California voted to change the profligate deficit-spending approach of the last five years. So the voters replaced Gray Davis with Arnold Schwarzenegger, chosen largely because of the latter's promise to roll back tax spending.

Yet just weeks after Schwarzenegger was sworn into office, his effort to control spending and restore fiscal responsibility is facing strong opposition. The opposition comes not from the 4 million California voters who placed him in office but from the 120 members of the state Legislature.
