That is what a lot of folks missed. It was a "pocketbook" election in two important aspects:

1. Grayout's mismanagement of California's pocketbook and the cover-up.

2. His attempt to make up for his mismanagement by picking the pockets of California taxpayers.

Nothing more than that. People who think they can impose a 180-degree turnaround are reaching way too far.

Be Seeing You,
