Caller 1: Props being overturned by courts... will you promise to set aside person opinion and do everything to represent the people's votes and defend them in the courts. Jones: Absolutely yes. Simon: Yes, he agrees. Mentions AB 25 re: possible undermining Prop 22.

Roger asks Simon for a difference from Jones: 1st to pledge no taxes, claims Jones increased taxes. Jones asked what makes him difference from Simon: Simon never been in the legislature. Reduced taxes. Been elected.

Caller 2: Illegal aliens getting in-state tuition at UC schools. Jones opposes. Says people who stay here and pay taxes should keep Regents in-line. Simon: Also opposed, says it's a matter of priority. Shouldn't punish legal citizens of other states.

Caller 3 ("Greg in a car phone"): If they win as "conservatives", what will they do work with the liberal legislature? Simon: His ideas will be "pumped" through the legislature. Mentions US Att. as "public office". Says he's been able to get the essense of his ideas through. Says his ideas are "doable", that there can be plenty of agreement on things like differed maintance. Mentions Reagan, Bush, Rudy not having had elective experience either. Jones: Gov'ts not like a business. There's more given-and-take. Emphasizes legislative experience and beating Willie Brown. Again, points to having won statewide elections. Attacks Davis.
