"Courage maybe, but not much good for California. $15 Billion of Prop 57/58 borrowing enabled even higher spending than Davis could have dreamed of and put us in more debt for decades to come. Oh, and he backed Prop 71, the $3 Billion Stem-Cell research scam. More borrowing, more debt, with no accountability or return for the state. Supporting his initiatives can be expensive and deadly. Prop 76 authorizes more bonds. Proposition 78, socialized medicine light, is also a sham.

It ought to be pretty clear by now to even the most ardent Arnie-bot that he will borrow and/or raise taxes before he will cut anything. Anyone still stupid enough to support him needs to understand this.

Ok, you've got a point on the borrowing. But he CUT taxes.
You've to admit that paycheck protection and taking on the teachers union is long overdue and takes guts on his part and is good for California.

Re the Duke, let's see, when was the last time a governor mailed you a check because the state had collected too much in taxes? That's what I thought. That's what Duke did. Compare that to Davis, who locked in pensions and entitlements. Also, Duke cleared out Rose Bird et al. and appointed bonafide CONSERVATIVE judges and restored some sanity to the court system here.
