I hope they go bankrupt soon.

You can't fix something like California without it first hitting rock bottom.

[Arnold is likely to heed the unions. They read him the riot act last November and since then he's behaved like a good boy.]

Arnold stood up to the unions and the abortion industry last November. Unfortunately, Republicans didn't have the guts to go the voting booth. We had a very low turnout. It was pathetic.

Arnold talked, unions balked, and so he walked...to the dark side.

They can't go bankrupt, but they will end up defaulting on their bonds.

It didn't help that he let the dems off the hook by borrowing 15 billion..

It had an undesired effect as you mentioned at the polling places last November, a couple worthy initiatives got tossed with a few stinkers as well. The blame can be spread around for that.

If it wasn't for all my family over there, I would hope for the 8.0 quake. I lived there almost all my life and I am sickened by the way they have destroyed that beautiful state.
I thank God that I left when I did.

Governor Swartzeneger tried to set things right but the socialists who control the voters shot him down.

The R.W.Ratikal account obviously has no knowledge of California's recent economics. The question becomes why offer an opinion that is divorced from reality?

FYI. Since taking office the Austrian has proposed and approved record breaking spending package after spending package for the state. Spending well in excess of income. He has borrowed billions to continue the spending. He has suggested no cuts in spending. Only increases.

Schwarzenegger's only opponents are elected Republicans in the Assembly and Senate. Since taking office Schwatzeneggger has employed extra-constitutional maneuvers to disenfranchise these Republicans from the budgeting process. Many elected Republicans are bitter and wish that Schwarzenegger would cease and desist his shenanigans.

No, R.W.Ratikal, Schwarzenegger has not tried. Just the opposite. He is part of the problem and not part of the solution. The sooner that Californians can remove the Austrian Pretender from office and conservatives can drive the Wilsonegger gang from the CRP the better the state and the CRP will be.

Being the father of two little girls (4 and 6), I was heartbroken that the parent notification got voted down. I just can't image people would rather protect the baby killers then their own children.

The democRATS have a tight grip on people's brain. I didn't vote for Arnold, nor will I ever, but that didn't stop me from voting.

I too wish a lot more folks had sucked it up and at least voted a partial ballot to put that prop over the top.
