Lets recap:
Pension Reform: Abandoned
Merit Pay: Abandoned
Spending Cap: Abandoned, selects weak alternative with no teeth
Redistricting: Are California judges any better than legislators?
Tenure Pay: Good idea, but hardly merits special election
Then let me help you understand my position in easier terms.
My monthly electric bill with Davis $400.
My monthly electric bill with Arnold $200.
I frankly don't care what Arnold does becuase it is folly to believe he can get a solid majority rat legistlature to do anything constructive for my state. Thus the need for reformendums.
Rome wasn't conquered in a day. He cannot rollback decades of dem excess like a Simpsons cartoon.
Three rabid stray dogs could walk straighter lines than a democrat controlled panel can draw in this state. So yes, I think anything would likely produce Republican gains. I can see redrawn lines easily netting a half dozen seats and I think double digits is very possible. That would be of monumental help to a Republican congress. Besides, the map goes back to the people for a vote for approval.
A slice of pie is better than no pie.
