I get queasy when a liberal paper like the CC Times says things are playing into Simon's hands. I think Simon is better off selling how his ideas are better for California and saving the issue of Davis's corruption for later. If all he gains is to be seen as constantly harping on Davis, this issue will have been the successful rope-a-dope I feared that it might become.

Its still early in the game. If Bill Simon wins in November it will be despite the state's liberal media. All of which preferred Dick Riordan and which now back Gray Davis.
