No, he is purportedly signing the bill by gambling that he can get the environmental voters back without alienating the soccer moms, who are notoriously stupid.

If this bill covers light trucks as well (pickups), Davis is toast. Soccer Moms are one thing, blue-collar types who have to drive from the only homes they can afford (very distant from limousine-liberal land) are quite another.

Sock 'em with a mileage tax too? That's really begging the lightning to strike.

If signed into law, when do these taxes take effect? After the election, perhaps?

Davis is gambling that he has already lost most of these men so he had better get his environmentalists back... securing the base first. He is also gambling that most will forget all of this by November.

Davis has a $30 million bankroll to change the subject with a torrent of paid advertising, and he'll have all of the media with him beginning immediately following Labor Day. Media always turns hard left just before an election.

The man and his minions are scum... nothing but a bunch of scheming liars. Do not underestimate this crowd.
