Well, it would be awefully easy thing for them to do so. In fact, its a far easier thing for them to do in order to retain power than any resigning/etc. There they subvert Democracy. Here they capitulate and let us fall flat on our nose. After all, Ahrnold or whoever will be campaigning on FIXING the problem. A failure is judged as a total-failure and responsibility by the Liberal Media. Stop underestimating them. They've managed to take the -$38.2 billion off the rader screen, they can blame defaults on Ahnold, you better believe.
As it stands now, the Legislature is polling lower than Davis out here, there will be sweeping changes there in 04 and beyond...and they KNOW it. Its the bottom of the 9th and these guys need a home run.
Ahrnold's inability to understand Supply Side economics, (demonstrated in his appointment of Warren Buffet as lead Economic Advisor) is the Governor they need as an Intentional walk to bring up their home run slugger.
I know what people have been saying about the media and Democrats, but the media will be changing because viewership/readership is way down and they'll go out of business if they don't change their ways. And, this isn't the NY Times/CNN/NBC/ABC/CBS we're talking about. This is San Fran Chron, Sac Bee, KRON, KNBC, LA Times, etc.
We shall see...
