As I recall, during last year's electricity crunch Governor Davis made numerous predictions, all of which were promptly proven wrong. I doubt he's gotten any better at that skill, so we can safely assume that this budget will definitely not be passed on time.

You are SOOOOOOO right.

Energy ... budget ... education ... all failures. Did anyone else see the article this morning where the low-performing schools had their performance standards LOWERED so that the state wouldn't have to take them over? PATHETIC! And this was something Davis touted and campaigned on!

DUMP DAVIS!

Well listen to this lady. You and Davis and all your life-long career government cronies would have gotten the ax long ago if you ran a private sector company into the ground as fast and as ineptly as you have ruined California's finances.

Instead of contempt for term limtis -- Ms. McLean -- you should be grateful that there are people around who have worked in the real world who will eventually be called upon to fix this mess you've gotten us into.
