The more restrictions on government the better. I still have yet to see any negative to this proposition.

Here is a partial list of the politicians opposing Proposition 90 (call me crazy but I think I detect a pattern):
United States Senator Dianne Feinstein
United States Senator Barbara Boxer
Congresswoman Doris O. Matsui
State Treasurer Phil Angelides
Steve Westly, California State Controller
California Insurance Commissioner John Garamendi
Assemblymember Lloyd Levine
Antonio Villaraigosa, Mayor, City of Los Angeles

and if it later decided to sell the property, the original owner would have first call on buying it back for the price he originally paid for it.I'd hope.
If the left wing opposes it, let's wait until someone decides that Kelo enables taking property away from some minority owners and gentrifying the area for those evil rich white folks who can sure pay a lot more in property and sales taxes.

Sounds good to me. The more it ties the hands of government, the better. All levels of government have demonstrated they cannot be trusted. The key is less power.
I've yet to see even a scintilla of a reason to vote other than YES on Proposition 90.
Taxpayers will vote YES; the Tax Eaters will be opposed to anything that might yank them back from the trough.

Sounds like something that's going to be blown to pieces on appeal (probably Jerry Brown's first job, when he's not fighting to keep his office...)
But I'll be voting yes...

It is a sweeping change in the state constitution that could potentially affect just about every new state or local government regulation adopted in the future. And Weintraub has a problem with that?
YES on 90 - YES for Freedom!

I expect it to pass despite all the Left's hysteria against it. We need eminent domain reform in California. This is the Proposition 13 of the 21st Century.
