First, voters are loathe to have to get worked up and focused enough on a political matter to participate to any extent in something so foreign to them.
So the issue has to be pretty hot or contentious to get them to cooperate enough.
This is precisely why the previous 31 recall attempts against Governors have failed and why no statewide elected official has ever been recalled in the state's history.
Now, that said, you certainly have a point in the short term given that the success (if it is successful in the end) of the recall campaign will leave many Californians feeling emboldened and involved. And since they have such a pent up frustration with Sacramento as a whole, it would not be surprising to see some legislators come under the recall gun. Whether they would succeed or not would depend on the circumstance, the district, the lawmaker, the action he/she had engaged in to spark the recall, etc...
But I think this whole thing has a Prop 13 angle. And I think that the public would be predisposed to be supportive of recall-alligned folks and predisposed to be AGAINST individuals who backed Davis or refused to support the recall.
The recall and a politician's position on it will likely become a litmus test for California voters as to determining "who the good guy is."
