Angelides promised to roll back every college tuition and fee hike Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has approved since he was elected in 2003.

What a twisted world Californians live in.

A Democrat socialist able to use the abuses of a Republican governor against him in a campaign.

A Democrat, using the tax and spend policies of a Republican, as an apparently effective campaign slogan.

Black is white and the sky is falling.

I have to admit it's refreshing when a Democrat tells the truth about his intent to raise taxes.

Thankfully that also means he is a sure loser (ask Gore, Kerry, etc.) even here in spend-spree California. With 9%+ income tax rate, 1%+ property taxes, 8%+ sales taxes and many other taxes, most people feel that they are paying enough in taxes already. But nothing like a limosine liberal to volunteer for more punishment.
