He barely squeeked by with a 5% margin against an inept candidate after spending tens of millions of dollars. Then after winning, he announces the budget deficit is twice as bad as he'd been saying, that taxes have to go up (Republicans hate that) and that spending has to be slashed (Democrats hate that). The California Teachers Association has been running radio attack ads against the guy because of his proposed cuts in school spending. I don't think many of his erstwhile donors would give him the time of day now, so he'd have a hard time campaigning. I believe a recall would win big. The big question is whether the Democrat candidate in the recall would be one of their more commie-like folks. Giving the governorship to Cruz Bustamante would be a Bad Thing.
