California Recall Live Thread

[So Cal Rocket]

My mother-in-law and father-in-law haven't voted in 10 years. They are voting today to throw the bum out!

[tallhappy]

Even individuals not 100% conservative on all issues can deserve our respect, admiration and support

Yes.

If they actually do anything to deserve it.

And even if so (not the case in this campaign) that does not mean they deserve support for elective office.

Vote FORCalifonria: YES Recall, NO Schwarzenegger

I know what you're talking about. My point is we waste months and millions of dollars if we simply recall Davis and put in Bustamante. That would be tragic.

[Snerfling]

Betcha $5 that Gray Davis is on CNN's payroll by January!

I will take that bet. Gray Davis is viral - there ain't gonna be nobody who wants to touch him after this.

His political success was based on two things: pay for play and negative campaigning. Just as a leopard can't change his spots, Davis executed the same exact tactics during the recall.

Say what you will about BJ, at least his 33% was passionate. This guy has negative political good will even amongst his union base.

"Anyone got C-span on? This guy is a Idiot! Saying DAVID KAY'S report has no proof of WsMD."

[Tamzee]

You are so very welcome :-)

Go California!!!

I'm sorry, I'm dropping this approach, I must be making a mistake somehow in doing my searches. I'm just been slapping leather too quickly. I go through long periods where I just lurk, also.

The rumor I hear is that Matt has issues. He believes denial is a river in Egypt. He has adopted 'the third way', and has bonded with the greek in a unique and perverse manner. His desire is the corruption of the moral base. By dividing the moral base against itself he is able to contribute to the debasement.

Better. Cambodian.

I eat lots of Vietnamese food, but have never had Cambodian.... What's it like? There's a "Vietnamese/Cambodian" restaurant down the road a ways that I haven't tried yet... How does it different from Vietnamese?

[diamond6]

You're voting for Bustamante, then.

[CurlyBill]

It's GRAYout Time!!!!

[EllaMinnow]

Viral to all but Judy Woodruff and Bill Schneider.

They'll call Gray a "political expert" and have him analyzing the presidential election, then they won't understand when their ratings drop even further through the floor.

thanks for the updates

According to Taco Bell,

[Tamzee]

Arnold with bronze bust of Reagan he commissioned and donated to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, California. March 2002.

[SoCal Pubbie]

Half? Maybe in LA, but down here in the OC all the donut shops, save KK or Winchels, if you can find one, are run by Cambodians. I frequent my local one, which is directly across from our polling place at Trabuco Hills High School.

I'll still pass that one and drive the extra ten miles or so for a Krispy Kreme if the hot donuts light is on!

[pgyanke]

Cambodian food doesn't typically bark. ;-)

[America's Resolve]

"Frankly, there's a lot of people who feel he's not fit to be the governor," Bustamante said.

Laf! Why do you think Arnold's leading Cruz? Cause the ones who are "fit" and "qualified" have mucked it up so BAD that the average joe six-pack figures that a non-politican can't POSSIBLY do worse!

[goldstategop]

Yo quiero Taco Bell. All the millions of crunchy beef taco eaters can't be wrong.

[Tamzee]

Arnold's website has a "Where is Arnold?" service. Type in you address and you get your polling place and the page of the ballot on which Arnold is on. Very Cool.

Yes, I think so, too! He's run a very professional campaign and I think he has done more than anyone in a long time to attract and involve new voters :-)

Go California!!!

So did Rhonda the Rap-Sheet turn out to be the same as Rhonda the Gropee, or not?
