More recently he has tried to fool the people into thinking that the energy crisis is over. In a now infamous meeting with a newspaper editorial board, he pounded the table and demanded political credit for keeping our lights on - something that should be expected, not an item for praise! I guess while we're offering our thanks to the governor, let's not forget the crippling rate increases and billions of dollars in overpriced power contracts that the taxpayers and ratepayers will have to make good on.

I think that about says it all for this campaign. In my words: Davis is an unbalanced nutcase, and he turned a power shortage into a power crisis.

If Davis wins in November, it will be virtually impossible to recover.

because you have no ideas how to run the campaign, you finally settle on this...if the people hate us so much, we'll just have to make them hate the other guy even more. And if the facts don't support what we need to do, we'll make it up.

Touche' Sir

I thought that was an excellent speech -- except that he promosed to respond to the allegations about him, and didn't. Did he answer questions after the speech?

I think he would have been smart to - in the S&L case he has an excellent story to tell, and I'm betting there are good ways to finesse the tax shelters, too.
