California Recall Live Thread

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Yes. They could be that stupid.

[ThePythonicCow]

Thanks for the http://vote2003.ss.ca.gov/. However I've not gotten a single page from that site to load in the last 2 hours. My ISP must not have the right connetions or something.

[You Dirty Rats]

FREEP The 'Rat Ah-Nold Recall effort!

Demand a recall petition! Let the 'Rats waste money on the recall, then vote NO!

'Rats: "Thank you sir may I have another?"

[Libertina]

It is a mystery to me how people could be hoodwinked time and time again with last minute smear jobs about candidates... Like people who refused to vote for George Bush because of his DUI 30 years ago... Illogical.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Cool :0) In fact, I may send them a buck or two (which I will save up by dialing 1-800-COLLECT)

[radiohead]

ROFLMAO!!!

I'm glad Brit said something - I can't keep shooting the TV, it's getting expensive.

[Lordismystrength]

Me thinks it see-saws a bit! Most of the libs have already voted, so I think it may get a bit wider...

[cookcounty]

Notice that the heavily Democratic Alameda County with the untraceable new electronic voting system has reported nothing so far.

[Fledermaus]

More exit polls on Fox...Arnold wins among women. And pro-life Republicans went for Arnold by 3 to 1 over McClintock.

[You Dirty Rats]

WOW! Exit polling said voters who think abortion should be illegal voted for Ah-Nold over Tom 56% to 21%!

[ThePythonicCow]

Bless you - thanks.

[TheDon]

Interesting. Pro-life vote went almost 3 to 1 for Arnold over Tom.

[StriperSniper]

Looks like George Schwartzman is picking up the "I don't know how to spell Schwarzenegger" vote.

Buchanan voters. ;-)

(Go Pat Go!)

[null and void]

I wonder if the 'rats are really stupid enoght to try to recall Arnold? Could they really be that stupid?

Yes. duh!

[Torie]

IF this were a typical election, and if the votes are mostly absentee, I would posit that the recall is close to a dead heat. But of course, some of the "if's" don't obtain.

[defenderSD]

It's bad when you have a $38 billion deficit and your bond rating is one level above "junk" rating. I'm not talking about taxing the Indians heavily, but a 3-5% tax on profits would be appropriate considering that their customers travel long distances on taxpayer-funded state highways (not tollways) to get to their casinos.

[Cboldt]

I can't keep shooting the TV, it's getting expensive.

Ammo is less expensive by the case-lot.
