Nope. zeneggering is contrary to my ethics.

>> Fortunately the CA GOP isn't going to let the fringe elements who are trying to get a Dem elected, while telling everyone how conservative they are, to hijack the GOP. <<

Oh, yeah... the country's just chock full of extremist conservatives working their hardest to get Democrats elected. What an idiot.

It would be nice if the voters would go through with more of the propositions so the State can change for the better.

The lack of conservative voter participation was piss poor in CA in 2005.

"As Richard Nixon once said, 'If you don't have a chunk of your base angry at you, you are not doing your job," said Jack Pitney, a political science professor at Claremont McKenna College.

I would like to see a source for this quote. It sounds.... Jayson Blairsy-ish to me.

[Lancey Howard]

Schwarzenegger will win in a landslide.
Bet your house on it.

Ya ever consider it may have been the lack of conservatism within the propositions that had a bit to do with the results as well. just a thought

[A CA Guy]

Even if it was for one proposition the conservatives could have gotten off their butt to come out and vote.

Too darn lazy and satisfied, so they stayed home.

[NormsRevenge]

On that I agree to a certain extent.

Folks could have voted on some and left the others blank if they chose to not support a key prop or two.

Losing prop 73 is the best example and probably one of a few I would say fall in that category.

Politics is a vicious game. That's what we have come to in this state where the legislature refuses to do what we elect them for. The voters are to blame in more than one way, that being said.

[A CA Guy]

We agree!
