Good man. Here's hoping that things start improving in California real soon.
And thanks for reminding us all that Bill Clinton served as Davis' advisor during this whole thing . . . What is Clinton batting in terms of candidates he's supported since he left office -- something like 0 for 27?

Getting Davis kicked out was an important even
regardless of who took his place.
A corrupt governor was held to account for
his actions that sets a positive precedent
for the nation.
May a lot more holding to account take place
for bad politicians of both parties.
To: Sabertooth
Sabertooth, I have not been friendly to you and we have fought a lot, but this is class. I thank you for it.
To: Sabertooth
Please allow me to piggy-back on your congratulations.
To: Sabertooth
Sabertooth you're a class act!

You would really think that by now they would understand it, wouldn't you?
Clinton campaign help = Major league defeat
Still, we shouldn't complain, should we?
As long as Bubba keeps showing up to stick forks in our opponents, we should be happy he is doing us the favor.

It is very good that Davis got recalled.
That sets a great precedent in and of itself.
A corrupt govenor has been held to account.
But we need not pretend about what is about to happen.
Character does matter above all else.
And the Republican party in California is completely
controlled by RINOs now. Conservatives have no
party in California.
Hate to bring the bad news but waiting and seeing
is not going to change anything we need to go ahead
and brace ourselves for it.
I hate to say it but I think even most Arnold
critics underestimate just how bad he is.

Hey . . . check out these predictions of mine from the last two months. Anyone out there who needs a political advisor can Freepmail me with a lucrative job offer. LOL!
9/26/2003 11:44 PM EDT Arnold is going to be the next governor of California.
9/24/2003 7:23 PM EDT Remember the Jesse Ventura Factor. Traditional polling methods generally do a very poor job of estimating the appeal of a celebrity candidate who will often attract a lot of supporters who would not have otherwise voted in the election.
9/24/2003 7:17 PM EDT If this trend holds up, I think I should quit my job and become a high-priced political consultant. I've said from the day Arnold announced his candidacy that he would win this race, even if McClintock stays in right to the end.
9/23/2003 10:48 PM EDT Remember my prediction from a month ago: Arnold wins even if McClintock stays in the race. You heard it here first!
9/09/2003 1:13 AM EDT Arnold is going to win, and by a margin that's going to surprise a lot of people. You heard it here first, folks.
9/09/2003 12:48 AM EDT Something to keep in mind here is that an outsider like Arnold Schwarzenegger is an ideal candidate in a recall election like this. The fact that it is a "recall" as opposed to a regular election means that an underlying disenchantment with professional politicians will be a major factor . . . This race is starting to look remarkably similar to Jesse Ventura's run for governor of Minnesota . . . This may sound completely off the wall, but I'm predicting that Arnold is going to win this election regardless of whether McClintock stays in the race or not.
9/06/2003 10:57 PM EDT Good post. I have a friend who lived in Minnesota during Jesse Ventura's race for governor, and from what he's told me about that period of time, it sounds like this California race reminds me of Ventura's campaign.
9/06/2003 10:26 PM EDT In a recall election involving a thoroughly unpopular governor in a state that is in the toilet economically, the ideal candidate to replace him is the following: 1. Someone who is not known as a politician -- because politicians created the mess in the first place . . . 2. Someone who has instant name recognition -- because there isn't much time to campaign . . . 3. Someone who smiles alot and speaks English with a "trademark" accent -- because anyone he runs against will always look like a sleazy, smooth-talking politician in comparison.
8/13/2003 9:08 AM EDT More than anything else, the success of this recall effort illustrates an utter dissatisfaction of California voters with the "usual" two-party political process. Which is why I think Arnold Schwarzeneggar is going to be the next governor of California, and by a margin that is going to shock a lot of people.

The most important message of the day is the continued rejection of the Demorcrat party. Bill Clinton keeps being portrayed as a beloved icon in America. Meanwhile, under his direction and through is agent Terry McAwful, the Republican advantage is grows in the House and Senate and we now have a Republican as Governor in (gasp) California.
Keep underestimating the GOP Bill, we're loving it!
