I live in CA. I don't think this is a conservative/liberal issue in this race. I think Davis has been a very poor, lackluster governor. If he wins it's because Simon LOST. Davis' main activity has been to shake down...I mean...approach businesses for huge campaign contributions. What has been working in his favor is increasing evidence that YES the California skyhigh electrity/energy prices WERE tinkered with by outside forces, especially Enron. If not for that he would be a shoo in. There really seems to be little love between Davis and most voters, even those who vote Democratic. It's for that reason that he'll try to paint Simon as someone belonging to the far right wing. Bottom line: a very boring, bordering-on-incompetent governor. And this is NOT said from a "conservative/liberal" perspective. MY BET: MAY lose...but Simon cannot take anything for granted.
