Look out Dems. You wanted the majority. You’ve got it. Come on 2012. It will be another moment just like this one, only it will be focused on the State of California. For the first time in several generations, I expect to see California lurch back toward the right. Wait until Jerry gives illegal immigrants driver’s licenses. Wait until people start losing their homes because property taxes went through the roof. Wait until Cap and Trade starts costing people their jobs. This and more, the Democrats won’t be able to resist. More power to ‘em. The more they screw us, the more they will be damaged by their actions.

Dennis Miller said that if Horace Greeley were alive today, he would say, "Stay put!" instead of "Go west, young man."

And I'm not convinced that having Meg Whitman presiding over a fiscal disaster that the Dem legislature won't let her fix, would have been a good thing in the long run.

I wonder if, instead of Schwartzeegger, Cal had a Dem gov., would there have been been a chance of a GOP takeover of gov. and the legislature?

I believe so. And to my discredit, I actually voted for the guy. I was a died in the wool person who didn’t want a brown separatist like Bustamante, or Gray Davis to be at the helm.

So I gave the Legislature a fall-guy for the last seven years.

I was part of the problem. I’m trying to avoid that these days.

It’s deeply rooted in why I hold Palin to account for backing a guy like McCain and signing on to The LOST Treaty.

We must vet our people rigidly. We can’t afford anymore 2, 4, 6, or 8 years implementing the Leftist agenda even 10% of the time. And all too often, our folks implement it far more than that.

From here on out, we play hardball and move the line back to the right every election, and more importantly in-between them.

If we’re not on board to do this, if the status quo is just fine, then we’re in the wrong cause. Conservatism deserves more than this. Our Founding Fathers, and military people who paid the ultimate price, deserve more than this.

We, me included, have to change for the better.

Stay put is fine, if you wish to allow California to remain in the wrong camp. It’s much too precious to allow that.

It’s capable of being the fourth or even third power on the planet. We don’t surrender that to anyone.

We need more minutemen out here, now less.

I certainly understand where Dennis is coming from. He’s frustrated too.
