CATOs last report was so flawed for California (i.e. totally ignored the massive borrowing and deficit spending), I pretty much wrote them off. This one is at least a little closer to reflecting the record.
Schwarzenegger is no longer the small-government crusader he claimed he was when he auditioned for the role of governor. He has instead become a borrow-and-spend version of the big-spending governor he unseated in 2003.
