I would suggest to Republicans that before the vote and before Davis Budget that they come up with a "Contract for the future," that lays out the conditions on which the party will endorse voting for the budget. Then make sure that the republicans stand firm in an election year.

I like your idea, but even if the Republicans stand firm on the budget, the Democrats only need four Republican votes ... and even if we stand firm, the press will NEVER report our side of the story. Been there, done that.

But it's a great idea ... and maybe because they are pissed off with many of Davis' shenanigans, they WILL report our ideas. But why do we have to come up with any solutions to the problems Davis created? As soon as we say, "We should do A, B and C", the debate is turned AWAY from Davis and onto the Republicans.

I think we need to continually point out that this is Davis' fault, just like the energy crisis and the continuing failure of our public schools. He is more interested in MONEY and ELECTIONS than GOVERNING or LEADING.

Dump Davis!
