As long has he remains the "leader" of the CA GOP, we will only see things move further left. Once he joins up with Rudy for President, the GOP platform will be completely erased.
Those who voted for Schwarzenegger in November, regardless of reason, are part of the problem, not the solution. Those who voted for Republican legislators who supported any of Schwarzenegger's liberal agenda, from the budget to social issues are part of the problem, not the solution.
As long as Republicans, regardless of their self proclaimed political philosophy, elect/reelect members of the expedient/moderate/liberal Republican cabal the problem will not be solved. It will simply be exacerbated.
