>> Blaming this on Arnold is kind of a tough sell when the voters just approved of this <<

Gee, wonder WHY the ARINOLD-luvin' sheeple in California "approved" of this?

The real problem with this initiative was that there just wasn't anyone out there hawking the negative position. Laura Ingraham was the most vocal person I heard.

Laura brought on a scientist that does adult gene cell research. (At least I think that was his credentials)

After I heard this guy talk for ten minutes, I had a number of good points to give people to convince them not to vote for it. Sadly, California doesn't seem to have prominent conservatives who are well informed, highly visible, and willing to hawk the conservative position on these issues.

As a result, the uniformed populace votes for what sounded good, unopposed by truth.

This isn't entirely the ignorant populaces fault. It is the fault of conservatives in the state. The republican leadership should have been spending the big bucks to inform people. God knows they didn't spend a dime on the presidential election.

Conservatism is all but dead in the state for one reason. We do not have a viable leadership. What passes for leadership is just embarassing.
