ANOTHER RECALL WILL BE THE END OF THE DEMOCRATS

Maxine Waters began her expected screed last night on Chris Matthews' show as the first results started rolling in. Despite his unrealistic prediction that Bustamante would win, Matthews did his best to take this one on the chin. He's nothing if not an effective chameleon.
Waters, by contrast, swore that if Arnold won, there would be another immediate recall of him. She and the Democrats would do well to leave that threat where it belongs... on the cutting room floor.
The voters in California have done some odd things over the years, but none was more amazing or unexpected than 62% of the state's voters pulling the Republican lever yesterday.
Between votes cast for Arnold and McClintock, 62% of the voters in a Democrat state voted Republican. They were making a strong statement. Now, factor in a record turnout. We're talking sea change, firends.
The voters gave their firm opinion on a number of issues, and the Democrats should listen well. Hopefully, they won't...
The voters said that they were tired of campaign smears as a way of political life, and ignored the attempted Democrat assassination of Arnold's character.
They said that they didn't believe that Bush or the White House or the Republicans were responsible for California's financial crises (plural).
Last but by no means least, they said that they were sick to death of the Liberal Democrats' destruction of the American Dream.
California used to be a beckoning torch on the shore for people who dreamed of a better life, even if those people already lived here in America. Now, people and businesses are leaving in droves after having been mauled by the Big Cal Government abuses of the peoples' successes.
If Maxine and the "Teddy Kennedy Syndrome" blatting, snivelling Democrats follow through on their promise to attempt another recall, this time of Arnold, there will be political Hell to pay.
It is predictably too much to ask that a Liberal see, acknowledge, and/or guide his or her actions based upon the facts of a situation... they never have done so, and they likely never will. Frankly, if they could do so, they wouldn't be Liberals.
But the Democrats in California and across America just got hit in the mouth with a two-by-four. And I mean hammered. If they cannot recognize this for exactly what it is, then their lumps are just beginning.
The voters already said "Enough with the slimey, nasty tactics." And they shouted it like a political primal scream. Conservatives can only hope that the Democrats are so blind, so deaf, and so stupid that they try to recall Arnold out of spite.
The fallout will be so huge, so deafening, it will make the current Democrat "CIA leak" concoction disappear from the radar screens.
And that can only be a good thing for America.

Waters is a moron. A recall effort by the the Democrats would generate a massive backlash and doom them in '04. Even the go-tards in the Davis camp realize that. Isn't the name of their big nutball organization "Move on."

The Dims are ruled by socialists, and are on a march to accomplish the establishment of a socialist state.
Only the opinions of their ruling elite are of any significance to them.
They will stick to their socialism and attack methodology right thru the election. They have learned, however, that lying about issues yields more results than lying about a candidates personal life.
This is an ideologhical war that will not end until there is Euro socialism in the US or the Dim elites are gone.

Doonesbury is such a friggin' cliche. Way to make a difference Gary. Your anti-Arnold toons ginned up so much popular support the last time.

Speaking of which, it looks like Matthews has alienated the three viewers he has left. Didn't he say Bustamante was going to win? He really has his finger on the pulse of politics, doesn't he?

"Yeah - RIGHT! With ... what kind of margin for success? LOL!" Precisely. I mean, why even threaten such an imbecilic response? To be that out of touch with reality is beyond comprehension.
Calling these people morons is an insult to actual morons.

I do sooooo hope you're right.
What's the difference between a Hamas suicide bomber and a Democrat?
Democrats implode, hurting nobody but themselves.

Yes, Matthews first said that the recall would be voted
down by the voters, then went on to predict that, if the recall somehow
passed, Bustamonte would win.
He's a real visionary, that guy.

Great post! Maxine Waters with her big mouth, sheesh! Did you know that during the Rodney king riots, she said on live television, "don't burn and loot in your own neighborhoods, go to the white mans neighborhoods!" LA TIMES and our government turned a deaf ear.

Could you provide a citation for that Maxine quote. I have a few people I'd like to send it to.

It is predictably too much to ask that a Liberal see, acknowledge, and/or guide his or her actions based upon the facts of a situation... they never have done so, and they likely never will. Frankly, if they could do so, they wouldn't be Liberals. Exactly. The vast majority of the liberal/socialist rank-and-file don't think clearly -- they only 'feel'. (Of course, the 'Rat leaders are more cognitive, and manipulative).

Come on guys, a recall of the new gov elect will be their last ditch effort. Socialists are like water, they take the path of least resistance first. First they will run to their "mommy and daddy" figure; the liberal courts. If that doesn't work then they may try a recall. But I believe before that they will try obstructionism and even more character assassination. They will hope to show that Arnold can't govern because he can't get any legislation passed. They will continue with the groping charges, and then some. They will try to set him up with women paid to put him in embarassing situations. They may even try a real assassanation; they are anti-gun only for the masses who of course can't be trusted.

Cruz promised it too, while stirring up the unwashed masses gathered at his feet to worship him. Did he ever concede during his diatribe?

Vast Wright Wing Conspiracy Alert !!!!
Sign Demo Recall petition. Give them what they want.!!!
Where do I send $ .25 donation for the kool aid??
They already have the poison for it. Just scrap it off their talking points. No sense wasting good vitriol.
To: Gargantua
Did Matthews really predict Bustamante victory? I find that hard to believe. The night before the election he was talking as though it was almost a sure thing that Arnold would be the new governor. Its hard to believe that with 3 million absentees vote already in and votes of high turnout that he would change his mind at the last minute. Did you actually see him say it? Any chance you misunderstood? I watched him last night and I didnt notice any of the embarrasment one would experience if they had been so wrong.
