That was NOT a "trial balloon". It was an egomaniac socialist shooting off his mouth. Didn'tyou see this: "Schwarzenegger was the keynote speaker at a 25th anniversary celebration of Prop. 13. Schwarzenegger praised the measure, which sharply curtails yearly increases in property taxes." Obviously Arnold is in favor of Prop 13.

The anti-Arnold partisans will still find a conspiracy. They really want the Democrats to control California so they can whine about what life was like in the old days with a real conservative. The future belongs to those able to adapt and succeed. Arnold offers the best, and perhaps only, chance of victory over Davis/Bustamante.

Thanks for saying that. I'm in AZ but may move to California in the next four years and I pray that the slide to socialist oblivion is stopped. I have many relatives there who are sick of the communist takeover.
