Arnold may be a RINO on a lot of things but a good deal of his across the board popularity is due to his resisting tax increases. He should take a look at Bob Riley who took the easy way out in Alabama and less than a year later, he's a dead duck one term Governor.
Arnold may be a RINO on a lot of things but a good deal of his across the board popularity is due to his resisting tax increases. One of his first acts was to repeal Davis' illegal increase on car registration fees. "Lawyers" said it would be illegal but he said that if Davis could raise them, he could reverse Davis!
Another big point that put him in was his stand on workers' comp program. Headlines today indicate he is very close to a deal. Workers' Comp is a major cost of doing business in CA. One of the problems is the large payout for 'back problems'. Rumors are that the bill may contain a provision that back problems have to be identified technically, not just on a doctor's opinion.
