The problem is that Arnold wants the bonds, and the rat politicians (obviously) want the bonds. And the unions (including the teachers) want the bonds. That's a lot of money and a lot of TV and radio ads pushing "YES" on the bonds.
The Howard Jarvis folks are going to be outgunned, BIG TIME.
Good luck on stopping the bonds.
And the construction companies lining up to build in flood plains want the bonds. And the international toll-road companies want the bonds. And the Charter School businesses want the bonds. And.... the NY bankers *really* want the bonds!
The Howard Jarvis folks are going to be outgunned, BIG TIME.
True. An understatement, but very true. Ain't direct democracy grand?
