Roger Hedgecock mentioned that when he was hosting Limbaugh's show last week. Even UPS drivers (Teamsters) are getting on board to help gather signatures. Their ox is going to get gored either way. The tax and spend orgy in Sacramento has reached a crescendo that can't be maintained or sustained. It may take a wholesale meltdown to get the attention of the politicians. The recall is just the tip of the iceberg.
The "attention of the politicians" is not at issue - - they know EXACTLY what is going on and they don't care. The Democrats simply cannot tell their constituents (the parasite class) that they will have to settle for less free stuff. There is NO percentage in that. To them, a complete meltdown is PREFERRABLE to responsible, conscientious budgeting because then, when their constituents are cut off from free stuff because the money is all gone, the Democrat politicians can pin the blame on "the economy" or on Bush or on the mean Republicans - - anywhere but on themselves.
But the real problem is that when and if Davis goes down, the only thing that will rise from the ashes to take over California is another Democrat. California is simply too overrun with parasites to ever again see a conservative governor. The state's only hope at this point (as Joe Hadenuf implied) is that the rest of the country will "catch down" with California as the Democrats slowly but surely destroy the nation, state by state, with their agenda of getting minority populations addicted to government (parasite creation) and demonizing the traditional American family.
It's all over but the crying.
