and the GOP successor has an out..because the Dem controlled Cal legislature will no doubt block most of his initiatives....so maybe this will energize the GOP throughout the state

Yes. Not only that, I think Gov McClintock sitting in Sacramento (he's currently a State Senator and a total thorn in their side) would be very intimidating for the Leftists up there who last I heard accomplished only getting Transgendered Rights passed in the past year. They are hopelessly out of touch...now. Suddenly having a new Gov, entirely because of fiscal irresponsiblity could change their view. I think they might go along with McClintock once he was in power, they know DARN well all eyes are on them, and they are next.

Either way I think it will most certainly lead to an overhaul in the Legislature once the new Gov can't get anything done; look what happened to the Senate Democrates nationally. As I remember it, ALL the pundits were predicting huge loses for the GOP, since never in history had the ruling party GAINED seats. Last time I checked, Tommy Daschle was really mad about being painted as an Obstructionist.

You know, methinks about the only thing that would make this more fun would be if Gary Condit announced that he was running for Governor on the Dem side.....
