Schiff's comments were made on the TV news broadcast, but are included in the article linked above.

"I think what we saw today in California was really an anti-incumbent sentiment strongly expressed," said Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.

Let's keep the Dem's on the run!

This kind of thinking is just going to encourage the voters to finish off what they've started in CA.

[LS]

This is their new spin. They have nothing else. Course, they'll have yet another spin when Bobby Jindal wins in Louisiana!

Spin spin spin spin ya losers!!!

"I think what we saw today in California was really an anti-incumbent sentiment strongly expressed," said Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.

Hopefully this will be true in his case.

This must be the DNC fax for the morning. Didn't McAuliffe say something similar already?

[Just mythoughts]

Well this maybe the script but Mr. Schiff the liberal just gave President Bush credibility.

So to call President Bush "incumbent" now changes their script from "stealing an election" to one who won.

Tee hee hee....

Watch out Hillary. Rudy has you in his sights.

I love the way the democrats never see the otherside of an argument.

[Savage Beast]

Blah blah blah...! More Democrat "spin" and wishful thinking. If these jackasses were not so mind-numbed, they'd get bored with their own propaganda, like everybody else does.

[Joe Bonforte]

And if Gray Davis had beaten the rap, the Democrat's message would certainly have been how voters just love Democrats and Bush is in trouble.

The news could be that the leaves are unusually beautiful this fall, and the conclusion by the liberal shills would be that Bush is in trouble.

And Schiff voted out Jim Rogan's congressional seat..He is a creep! (just my opinion!)

[SW6906]

Puhleeze! Give me a break!

[Capt. Jake]

That's the same spin they put on the 1994 debacle. Until someone pointed out that only incumbent Democrats lost.

[truthandlife]

This is just the Democrat talking points. They blamed talk radio and FOX News for losing 2000 and 2002 and I hope they keep believing their own lies. The American people cannot stand leftist liberal cry babies and if the Democrats keep saying that this was a vote against the economy they will have a rude awakening in '04.

California's race was unique to the nation
If anything Arnolds immense popularity
will mean new votes
for the Republican Party
as long as it downplays
its religous conservative roots

The Cali election further punctuates
'The People' being sick of lying liberals
and their libel

This Will translate to the national elections
lying blowvillators like Clinton Franken Moore Couric Rather et al
take note
imo

[machman]

Nice to know his fax machine is working. Keep trying to find an excuse DNC.

[randita]

McAuliffe tried this line as well. Greta asked him why Davis didn't make the case that CA's woes were not his fault, but the fault of Bush's economic policies. McAuliffe replied that the campaign was too short and Davis didn't have time to get the word out.

So again, we have the Dems pat reasoning: When they lose, it's because the message didn't get out (bunk). When they win, it's because the voters agree with their message.

[VRWC_minion]

You conservatives have no heart. The average rat DU type is ready to commit suicide at this point. They need some message of hope even if its total BS.

[jaime1959]

Ya just gotta laugh at these people sometime.

[jalisco555]

Add Arnold's and McClintock's votes together and you get over 60% GOP vote in California. The Dems are in deep trouble.
