What California needs right now is someone who is willing to make tough decisions. Right now, that state needs massive budget cuts, not liberal minded social programs. It needs leadership that can make clear that no government job is safe. it needs to evaluate every single government asset for potential sale. It needs to be prepared to at least major reforms, including the privatization of the state's school system. It needs a long term, bi-partisan plan to get the state budget into surplus, and use cash from asset sales to pay down debt. And finally, in 5 or 10 years time when the debt is down and surpluses are up, those surpluses must go back to taxpayers to boost the local economy.

Unfortunately, California, the home of Hollyweird and San Francisco, is largely run by a pack of RATS and RINOS, who make Ahnuld look like a viable conservative candidate in comparison to the rest of the people running the state. CA really needed responcible budget management before it got to this point, and now its here it needs drastic leadership to bail it out. I just hope, for the sake of the good folks of CA, that leaders step up to the plate.
