CONCLUSIONS CAN BE DRAWN FROM THE CALIFORNIA RECALL ELECTION:

1) The Democrat Party has been steadily imploding. The withering on the vine of the Democrat Party can be traced to the Congressional elections of 1994 - no wonder that hated Newt Gingrich.

2) Republicans got about 3 out of every 5 votes in a very liberal California and the tax and spend Democrat Davis was booted from office by a massive turnout of voters.

3) Take a look at the Democrat Presidential candidates, could there be a weaker field? I don't think so.

4) HOPEFULLY the GOP Senate will see this obvious trend and get tough on the foolish Democrats and their silly obstructionist tactics. Republicans should now be bolstered and they should govern like conservative Republicans.

5) President Bush is doing a fine job, he'll handily win re-election, he can be comfortable in pushing his conservative programs and he should definately fight hard to put conservative judges on the Supreme Court to fill any upcoming vacancies.

Just picture Arnold campaigning with W in CA next year. Good possibility for a pickup of those 55 electoral votes.

Actually, I think the Democrat leaders are taking a collective dump this morning. California, as a test case, has proven their presidential campaign a loser.

They did in California exactly what they are doing nationally. They did not field a viable candidate in hopes that the faithful would hold their nose and vote for Davis.

If they intend to field the current class of candidate, and hope to put Her Heiness in as the top dog, California has proven that it won't work.

I'll bet everyone in the Dem war room is having hot sweats.
