Looks to me that the greater electoral concern is being voiced by Democrats. Arnie has a commanding lead, commitment, charisma, smarts, an increasingly impressive array of advisors, and is poised to announce his program. Democrats are all too known to voters, but none have stepped forward with a plan for saving California. Meanwhile, of the 135 candidates running, 50 are Democrats, 42 Republican, 32 Independent, and 11 Granolas (assorted flakes, fruits and nuts). Thus, Bustamante has a sorry record and much competition -- info the media prefers not to share.
