Simon must be salivating over this. Davis is over the barrel on this issue. If he signs it he will alienate the rank and file. If he vetoes it the liberals will go ballistic. Simon wins in any case.

By the time these cars have to be marketed every legislator that voted for it will be out of office due to term limits and my guess is that the issue will receive very little attention in the years to come until it is about to go into effect. It's still a long time until the elections in November and 98% of the public will have forgotten about it by then.

I also predict that the leaches of society, which is the democrap base in Los Angeles and the bay area, which probably makes up 50% or better of the Senate and Assembly, will be given a tax credit (spelled government check) to offset the additional cost so the socialists will still maintain control no matter how much it hurts those that are productive in society.

Not in an election year..

I think Davis would be safe to veto this piece of garbage..

On the one hand, It contrasts him with simon and hits little people in their pocketbooks. Bad move. It also hands Simon another huge stick to beat him over the head with.

OTOH, what are the enviroweenies gonna do? Vote for Simon? Stay home and watch Simon win? He's got them all sewed up by default.

Kind of like the Conservative vote actually..
