As a California resident, I am pretty very disappointed by the results of the 2002 election. How can our State be so out of touch with the rest of the nation? In the other forty-nine States, Bush's popularity carried the Republicans to a majority in Congress and a restored many State Governerships. What happened in California?

I hope California's Republican leaders are doing some soul-searching. We deserved better than Davis.

It's really two areas (SF Bay and LA)in our state that are out of touch. It's time to break California into three states.

Second that for Illinois. Corrupt machine Dems took all the statewide offices, a complete disaster. My poor mom, who still lives there, couldn't enjoy the big picture because of the local results. Soul searching time, and time for the conservatives to take control of the Illinois Republican party and lead it back.

Why would anyone in his or her right (or left) mind vote for this guy? I repeat: ''The citizens of California are the biggest losers in this year’s election.''

If CA Republicans hadn't stayed home from the polls, "Gay" Davis would not have been re-elected. I'll tell you, CA GOP voters are INFURIATING! They deserve just what they are going to get - four more long years of that corrupt, inept, lying piece of crap governor.

Unfortunately, I'm a resident of the People's Republic of Kalifornia. I've said this in a couple of other threads but here it is again.

When the 2003 elections come around every GOP candidate will be able to say, "You want the Democrats? Look at what has happened to California in the past two years and then tell me you still want the Democrats."

I believe that California's purpose is to show the rest of the nation what happens when the liberals are in control.

Right now it's like going to the dentist. I'm wondering how much it's gonna hurt.

Best regards

From the article:

"...a two-thirds vote of the Senate (which the Republicans don't have) is necessary to stop a filibuster."

Well, no. 60 to invoke cloture, 67 to override a veto. But a great article!

What happened in California?

Vote fraud. We are also victims of the two large urban areas, LA and SF, which are leaning so far to the left that the noon sun looks like daybreak to them. The surprise is that prop. 52, which would have allowed election fraud to take place openly, rather than being somewhat hidden as it is now, was defeated.

Just remember, the Democrats can still filibuster in the Senate, and a two-thirds vote of the Senate (which the Republicans don't have) is necessary to stop a filibuster.

The dems don't get it yet. Let them filibuster W.'s agenda or his judges, or Homeland Security and watch what happens in '04.

Another BIG LOSER in Tuesday's elections:
Frankie LOUTenberg

Poor Frankie agreed to (illegally) accept a spot on the NJ ballot assuming he would be a big dog in the MAJORITY party in the Senate.
Ahhh, but the best-laid plans often go awry, eh Frankie?

How can our State be so out of touch with the rest of the nation?

Not to worry, you have company with those of us in New Jersey.

[Grover_Cleveland]

In his one term, Gray Davis took a two-billion-dollar surplus and turned it into a 50-billion-dollar deficit. That will grow to over a 100-billion-dollar deficit by the end of his next term. Why would anyone in his or her right (or left) mind vote for this guy?

How has the federal budget fared under George W. Bush?
