His second step is to start the initiative process to get it on the March ballot and let the people themselves vote on it.

Given his working relationship with others in the legislature, this will be his SOP. He won't get jack done. He will be laughed out of office.

Who is going to pay for all of these initiative petitions? Getting something onto the ballot in this state isn't cheap.

If he needs to govern by initiative and the line-item veto, so be it. Every initiative that passes will show people even more clearly just how badly the legislature is representing their interests. That's not a bad thing to accomplish. It may even help in breaking the dem stranglehold on the legislature.

Once you've taken into account the billions in cost savings from a successful tax-cutting initiative, you get a net gain, not a cost.

Notice that nobody wants to TOUCH the question of funding every damn initiative petition McClintock would have to start?
