I guess my concern is "why not let Davis fall into the sword deeper? With the increase in the auto registration combinded with the increased sales tax, Davis has dug his own grave. Not to mention the 20-40 million cost to Californian tax payers.

The courts, legislators, and representatives will surely stall any impeachment effort and end up spending millions to acheive nothing. ..except make the republicans look like revengeful people (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but the liberal press..you know)! Help me out here.

I have to live here in California, and the thought of three and a half more years of Davis as governor is horrifying. Davis doesn't care if he has "dug his own grave". This is his last term anyway due to term limits. The problem is that he has also dug our graves. The cost of a special election is infinitesmal compared to the tens upon tens of billions of dollars Davis has already cost California taxpayers, and the umpteen billions of additional dollars he will cost us if he remains in office.

Davis may or may not be replaced by someone decent, but it's hard to believe his replacement could possibly be worse. It's certainly worth the effort to find out. We know that the status quo is a total disaster.

I'd sign the petition, but with all the deluded fools around here who are mistaking that sexual predator RINO liberal creep Ahnold Schwollenpecker for a real "Conservative" leader, if he ends up being the replacement for Davis, I wouldn't sign the petition. Let the 'Rats take full credit for sinking the state.

That's a drop in the bucket compared to the 2 Billion Dollars the license increase will cost us per year...

So we leave him in office to REALLY screw up for what purpose? So that we make California a super-colossal bad example instead of just a horrific one? If there a chance to get someone in office who'll veto the crap coming out of the legislature, I say we take it. The legislature has prepared a number of bills, including universal health care paid for by employers. They've strippped the language out of them and left them as 'intent' shells for the time being so that the costs don't have to be calculated. When the budget is passd, the language will be replaced and the bills will be voted on. I don't want to take the chance that these will pass and we'll have a governor who'll sign them. 20-40 million for a special election would be a bargain under the circumstances.
