He didn't personally put the propositions on the ballot, of course, because they required signatures of the people, etc. But he was pushing prop. 74-77 strongly.

And you can thank me and my conservative buddies for collecting signatures and doing voter registration and walking precincts. Your welcome.

I am certainly grateful for all of you for that. I just wish you would have also succeeded in getting more conservatives to the polls to pass the reform propositions.

California legislators NEED to be in either strait jackets or handcuffs.

The Teacher's Unions are the worst.

Learned that up close on Prop 174 (School Vouchers) through '92/93.

To my fellow statesman in NC, William.

We need to break the unions, no matter how risky the move is, it'll help us all in the future

I am former CA resident. I couldn't agree more with you. I've met a few here in NC who think NC would "benefit" from Unions. The bile rises in my throat, and I verbally hurl. That's how strongly I am anti-union. I've seen the full "CULTURE OF CORRUPTION" involved with UNIONS.

I did pretty good with the conservatives. It was the RINOs that resisted.

So what do you think of people who claim to be conservative, yet voted NO on Prop. 76?
