Welcome to the California Recall Daily Thread.

In just 56 days, the people of California will choose a Governor and as a result set a course that will affect the future of the state and our country in profound ways.

This thread has been created to keep us all informed of the important developments.

I invite you to post all the major recall stories here or if it has already been posted, then add links to these posts. We welcome discussions of the candidates, the issues, campaign strategy, the polls, etc. Please be civil in your comments.

If you want to be added to a ping list on the recall please freepmail me and make sure you mention that you want to be added to the "recall ping list." I will ping you once daily at the start of the thread and occasionally if there is major breaking news.

Tried to get the known faces in there, although a couple of them I was sorely tempted to 'edit' lol

"I come from the school where once an election is cast and someone is chosen to be the leader, everyone gets behind that leader and does the people's business," Davis said.

What guys like Davis and Clinton don't seem to realize is that elective office is not some form of divine birthright. The people hired you, and if it has been deemed that you have screwed up, the people can fire you. I don't recall anyone getting bent out of shape about "undoing an election" over Nixon in 1974.

If you weren't thrilled by Arnold Schwarzenegger's surprise announcement of his gubernatorial candidacy last week, you either have no heart or work as a lobbyist for a California public-employees union. His jumping into the race was an adrenaline shot for a recall effort that, if successful, will be the most bracing act of political hygiene since Theodore Roosevelt took on the meatpackers.

If you were to distill all that is worst about American politics into one man, he would have perfectly combed hair and he would answer to "Gray." A cautious political hack whose only strength is selling out to unions and trial lawyers, Gov. Gray Davis is Bill Clinton without the conscience, Al Gore without the charm...
