Wonder what is Davis/Bustemante's next attack? Arnold is an alien?

[GSWarrior]

Very astute analysis. As for Davis and Busta...this is more than just a recall, it's the ultimate disgrace. They will be in denial for the rest of their lives. Davis' place in history is assured!

It's all good!!!!!

>>>>Democrats are defecting to Schwarzenegger so fast we may need a new term -- not the Reagan Democrats but the Recall Democrats.

Gray Davis did something something noone in the entire GOP could manage. He's turning CA back into a competitive electoral state.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Cornered Rats are more vicious than wolverines. Californians need to prepare for four days of living in a take no prisoners war zone.

[Argus]

They tried going back to the "Arnold is a Nazi who admires Hitler" line yesterday. They're floundering. I'm surprised they haven't accused him of abusing illegal steroids, a la Rush. That will probably be Monday's LA Times headline, though.

[Dog Gone]

For nearly a decade, the far right has trapped the Republican Party in a murder-suicide soap opera, putting forth right-wing candidates for statewide office who can't win elections. The far right, which is better-organized and willing to fight dirtier than Republican moderates, has crippled its party. The Democratic Party of California has benefited enormously.

I'm not sure I would have worded it this harshly, but the gist of this is probably accurate.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Thus my question to the FREEPer community earlier this week: Will a Republican victory in October at least make California COMPETITIVE in 2004 for the President? I'd LOVE to see my former party, the Democrat Party, have to spend MONEY in that state!!

[NormsRevenge]

One clear message from this poll is that Californians don't much like the leftist slant gripping Sacramento Democrats, which just resulted in a raft of new job killer anti-business bills. The approval rating for McClintock and the 63 percent disapproval of the driver's license law bill should strike fear into legislators who fought budget cuts and pushed for bloated state spending.

---

2004 will be the best chance for all reasonable folks to kick these socialists to the curb. They are nothing more than enemies of all those they say they care so much for.

[old school]

All this really means is that California voters are as dumb as stumps. You don't have to have a great deal of political acumen to grasp that!

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Agreed, she is a bit off on this statement!

I think the dirty stuff has come from Parsky!

[DodgeRam]

There's bound to be some overnight polling does anyone have any news on that, or any internal polling that might have leaked out?

[Grampa Dave]

Welcome back my friend.

There are many great remarks/summaries in this great article. These struck me as tidal change and a big change:

"The poll indicates that the "progressive" agenda Davis and the AFL-CIO union honchos believed Californians would back -- whose essential message was higher taxes to support burgeoning state welfare programs, softer treatment for illegal immigrants and minimal cuts in the bureaucracy -- failed miserably. Two key findings stand out, beyond 56 percent support for recall, and Schwarzenegger's solid 40 percent to 32 percent lead over Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante.

"First, groups that might have warmed to the images Davis projected -- Davis arm-in-arm with the crowd from the failed bilingual education movement as he signed a bill giving licenses to illegal immigrants, Davis promoting his vastly skyrocketing expenditures for health insurance for the children of working parents -- had second thoughts.

"The Times poll says two out of 10 liberals now want to oust Davis, as do 54 percent of women, union members, and the elderly, and 53 percent of voter-rich Los Angeles County. Democrats are defecting to Schwarzenegger so fast we may need a new term -- not the Reagan Democrats but the Recall Democrats.

We have a two jobs to do this coming Tuesday to allow these Tidal Changes to become permanent in California:

1. We have to vote/drop kick Davis out of office with big margin.

2. Then we have vote for our two guys so that both of them beat Cruz Busta Our Wallets.

Then we have to circle the winner with our SUV's and Pickup Trucks to protect him from the angry rats after the election. If #2 above happens, that will be a big shot fired across the bows of the perverts in the legislature not to screw around with our new governor.

Lets drive the rats of California into a deeper self enduced drugged out depression next week. Then keep them depressed until GW carries California in 2004. Then they can leave the state or get out of politics.

Wonder what is Davis/Bustemante's next attack? Arnold is an alien?

Even if they go out on this "attack", doesn't Davis already acknowledge that aliens are in California? After all, Davis said he wanted to make California the most diverse state with people from different planets here.

This is pure Bullsh*t! This woman is hysterical! She's mis-stating the facts, and she knows it! The "far-right" is the only thing that distinguishes republicans from democrats! And, (the truth be told) it is the "country-club" faction of the party, who have put forth candidates who couldn't win elections!

[ImProudToBeAnAmerican]

Ahnold pees in the shower! And he picks his nose! I heard someone saw him kick a cat once too!

[LisaAnne]

Ping.
The far right, which is better-organized and willing to fight dirtier than Republican moderates, has crippled its party

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Thanks for the kind word!

Then we have to circle the winner with our SUV's and Pickup Trucks to protect him from the angry rats after the election.

ROFL!!
