State Treasurer Phil Angelides can accurately pinpoint the biggest reason he badly trails Arnold Schwarzenegger in the race for governor: Most Californians either don't know him or have bought the ``tax-and-spend liberal'' impression molded by savvy political rivals.
Many analysts suggest that no liberal Democrat -- even one who runs a perfect campaign -- stands much of a chance against the moderate Republican whose Hollywood charm and power of incumbency give him an advantage in style and substance.

Gee, can't imagine why, considering that Angelides himself keeps saying he will raise taxes...
Watch the hand -- it's the hand he will use to sign higher taxes, homosexual marriage, licenses for illegals and universal, government run health care -- and that's just for starters.
Isn't it cute how the liberal MSM soft pedals this radical socialist...."tax and spend IMPRESSION".
Nice try. He will lose because of WHAT HE IS. And the portion of California's voters that are not mentally challenged, know it.
Even if Angelides can't get elected, this Edwin Garcia is willing to play monica for him.
..yeah, tricking him into appearing to be a complete weasel worked...
Pretty big starters. He also wants to impose a tax if you tune up your car!
and he also supports borrowing big bucks thru massive bonds, taking action against global warming.. for starters.
Oh Wait
No, that's the Gub positions too.
Darn.
impose a tax if you tune up your car
ya don't say,, Philthy bast*rd!
He wants to raise taxes by over 18 BILLION!!!! Arnold cut them by over 20 billion!
Arnold cuts taxes! Phoney Phil raises them!
Arnold cut them by over 20 billion!
Yeah and he borrowed 15 billion to help make up for it.
Yep! It's on his list!
Difference is Phoney Phil won't pay any of what he borrowed back, and will tax everything he can think of. The Gub cut the deficit by 20 BILLION and turned down "One Bill Gil" twice. No driver's licenses for illegals. Those were the two things that he said he'd do and stuck to it. Phoney Phil wants to raise taxes over 18 Billion! I'll take the Gub anyday, even though there are things I disagree with him on.
And then paid it back. Sorry NR. I gave up the kook-aid awhile back and think clearer now. The Democrats' game doesn't work on me.
How does Edwin see with his head so far up Phoney Phil's ....
Talk about spin! The picture that Edwin paints of PA is really impressionistic....after drinking alot of the kook-aid.
This is a brain on drugs. Just say, "NO"!
That's the hand he scrunched up during the debate, thumb and fingers touching, bobbing up and down like a silly sock puppet.
I don't want that hand to EVER get hold of a signing pen!
There are alot of porkers sprouting wings these days, since the Los Angeles Times endorsed Arnold.
Look it's a bird...it's a plane...
A cold spell winter in Hades is my prediction. It ought to throw Al Gore for a loop...again.
Yep there's *got* to be a snowball spinning very fast in Hades right about now. Gives me great hope that folks in CA are not (yet) completely off the deep end. I'm a transplant from Indiana (75% Red State), and so far (been here a year) CA's been driving me completely nuts.
Angelides being behind in the polls has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that he is running against one of the most famous and recognizable movie stars of the past 20 years!!
