Breaking!

[fml]

Thats just a teaser --- tell more!

[Joe Hadenuf]

No source huh?

[pogo101]

It's been sourced right here on FR for months, now.

The guy's question was your source specifically for the statement that Arnold supports the car tax hike recently put through administratively by the Davis administration. You didn't answer the question except to say, "It's been sourced right here on FR for months, now." Where, exactly? If you don't know, just say so.

Thanks for the Summary.

So the Supreame Court is deciding wheather to Give Gray Davis the orgasmic virgins or the clear white raisins. Got it. At he's going to make a statement as soon as he finds out. Got it.

You'd think he'd be more concerned about the recall...

[Brad’s Gramma]

Don't worry. I'm getting into enough trouble all by myself today. :-)

[Joe Hadenuf]

Hey, thanks for that. Will do it!

[firewalk]

Looks like we were both late on that 500 mark

nope...I could've had it, but left it for you. (-:

If Davis vacates his office post-certification (which is where we already are), prior to the recall election, the recall election proceeds anyway. Lt. Gov. Bustamante would become governor in the interim, but he only could remain there if the recall failed to win a majority.

So, if Davis resigns, and Bustamante becomes acting governor, is he then also ineligible for the replacement election (as Davis would be if doesn't resign)? IOW, if Davis quits, and the recall succeeds, could Bustamante graduate from acting governor to governor if he wins a plurality in the second question? Also, if Davis resigns, would he then become eligible to run in the replacement election?

DEBKA: Davis is Gumby.

[fml]

Thats because most celebrities who turn to politics (successfully) are Republican (I'm pretty sure)

Arnold is not ok with the car tax hike. Today's Contra Costa Times reported that Arnold would "terminate" the hike. I don't have a link for it, because I read it in the hard copy paper this morning. The Times is online at hotcoco.com. The story may be there.

Thanks for that. Seems some here are shooting from the hip.......

GETTIN NERVOUS OUT HERE

[MASmath]

so when is this news conference?

[Political Junkie Too]

My guess would be that 1) Bustamante is still eligible as a replacement candidate, 2) Davis is not eligible since his resignation does not stop the recall and he is the recalled officer who is ineligible by statute.

David Dreier on Hardball enthusiastically endorsing Schwarzenegger, fwiw.

[goldstategop]

I agree with you but for the fact this country is being undermined by lawyers and judges.

[Sacajaweau]

I'm curious as to what Ah nold will do with the illegal immigration problem. I assume he came into the United States through proper channels.

While I'm thinking of it: Wonder if Hillary has an FBI file on him. Stupid question. She's probably reading it as we speak.

>>GETTIN NERVOUS OUT HERE <<

If you see the police setting up barracades around all public buildings, you can guess the decision...

[lainie]

Yes. exactly.
