FIRST STRIKE: After five days of "positive" ads, Gov. Gray Davis unleashed the first in what will likely be a series of attack ads on Republican opponent Bill Simon -- and with good reason.
There's a new poll floating around Sacramento that shows the embattled Davis trailing Simon by a whopping eight points.

Simple comparison with our(CA) economy with the 37% increase in spending with the mid-teens increase in spending in the other leading state(Mass, NY) should just help drive Davis's negs up.
My wife thinks Gov. Davis posititve ad sucked...as did I.
Someday an election where only "legal" votes count would be nice. THIS is the main obstacle in getting conservatives elected in this country, particularly in California. It is a sad fact that your vote and mine most probably WILL be canceled out by illegal votes.
Absolutely true. I lived in California's Central Valley (actually up in the foothills of the Sierras) and I'd rather live in this part of California than any other state. We are a God-fearing, gun-toting, flag-waving group of citizens.
make that live
The radical green envirals only vote for the Rats because they have been told to by their green leaders. Their relationship with the Rats is a very tenious one. If they vote for a third party green candidate out here, each of their votes take away from the rat total.
It works the same way votes for PeroRat did in 1992. Most of those votes would have been for President Bush if not sucked off by PeroRat.
That is why I would love to see the greens in Kali get 15+% of the vote this November. If this election is close, a even a 5 to 10% vote for the Green will devastate Davis's total vote %.
Good to hear from you! Are you working hard as usual this summer?
The question SHOULD be, when will California get rid of this Democrat governor, the first one since Moonbeam Darling left office to go find himself at the Temple? At least Brown was entertaining. Davis is sickening.
As always,
It's always hard for me to judge because I'm biased ... I really, really, really dislike Gray Davis. But I thought his ad sucked, too. I thought that he looked sterile and unbelieveable, almost like a robot. He wasn't friendly.
And, anyway, I don't think it helps him to tout his "woman's right to choose" crap all the time. He's forgetting that half this state is pro-life -- and most of the pro-aborts are not as rapid as the pro-aborts on his staff. They are "quietly" pro-choice, and don't really want to think about it. He's forcing them to think about it, and I don't think that most people make their decisions on abortion ... except for those on both edges of the pro-life and pro-abort movement (I do consider myself a solid pro-lifer and will never vote for a pro-abort, Republican or Democrat.)
Nader is a very dangerous man. As the real data re the enviral nazis unfolds the next 4-6 years, he will be in charge of the Titanic Green Party. However, he can be a valuable tool to derail the Rats in Kali, the elections with Rat Senators this November and in 2004.
The next few weeks will be very telling. It appears that Davis will be spending $12 million while Simon continues to wait it out. But Davis is simultaneously being battered by the budget crisis, and more scandal details. If Simon is still tied or ahead of Davis a month from now, then Davis is indeed in deep sh!t. On the other hand, if Davis has pulled ahead by 10 or 15 points, then Simon is in deep sh!t.
Davis and Co. can lie and manipulate all they want, but some facts are so clear they can't be covered up.
Dump Davis!
