The paper has had a lot of photograph's of our Arnold signing bill, after bill, after bill. I only saw one thing missing in all the photos.
Republicans.
He can't throw Don and Fabian overboard... they are the ones supporting the massive borrowing via the pork-laden infrastructure bonds that Arnold is pushing, anathema to most Republicans. I very much doubt that Arnold will now start listening to Republicans about a pay-as-you-go plan for highways and such and abandon his "build it" mantra.
The CA GOP could give some money to the downticket campaigns (I looked yesterday and couldn't find a single contribution). And Arnold could stop acting like the downticket candidates have the plague.
But the Republicans/Schwarzenegger aren't supporting/endorsing any of the downticket candidates, are they? I thought they gave up on everybody except maybe McPherson?
Pray it is so.
I am sick of this.
Also if there's any conservatives out there with some extra cash, please, start buying some of these papers.
The Press Democrat would be a good start. Sonoma County where I live could be a LOT redder.
