1. In Dubious Battle...
I've seen the worst President in my nation's history, and now, as a native Californian, I'm gonna see the worst Governor in my state's history!

What's that 12-step thing about "bottoming out?"

3. Start the Recall Effort
The Repubs started the recalls battles. We must support the constitutional right to recall ... in fact let's embrace it. Where do we send the donations to RECALL ARNOLD????

I am from Iowa, but I am sending in my contribution.

Turn about is fair play ... too bad the people of California have to suffer.

2. That's it, I now boycott anything coming out of California
My money won't go to support idiots who allow fascism to take over.

21. Hope you're not vegetarian
It looks like Texas meat and Idaho potatoes for you because CA grows most of your produce.

4. Don't Be Ashamed of Your State
It's just that people haven't begun to recognize the organization and deviousness of what we're up against----the greedy robber baron Shrubbites.

Surprisingly, AEI Fellow Bill SCHNEIDER has been harping all evening that Ahhhnuld is not tied to Shrub, that it doesn't mean positive things for Shrub, that Ahhhnuld's role as as an OUTSIDER, that people wanted "outsider" and they are angry at "insiders" and Shrub is now an "insider".

Granted that the Shrubbites will invest in propping Ahhhnuld up, but perhaps his skeletons will mix their metaphors and come home to roost, plus the unmanageable problems are now his baby.

10. Sorry UTUSN
Just how many more years will it take for people to wake up?
Losing a Democratic State like California to the likes of a man
like Arnold, who is just a Bush Administration puppet is very
discouraging, to put it mildly.
I'm so disgusted tonight I can't think straight.

7. And just why do you believe the RW media?
Maybe they just want you to feel discouraged and stay home.

Will Arnold move the capital to Hollywood? You have got to love that Bewildered herd, dame you Walter Lippman. This was not an election it was a popularity contest.

12. Well if it stands and Davis is out, no use in crying over spilled milk.
Hopefully this injustice will get enough Democrats out there to vote this turkey out of office and hopefully not like the repukelicans. We shall oust him out the democratic way.

No one I know voted no on the recall. Everyone voted for Schwarzenegger. :~(

14. VoterBot:: "Ahhnuld lacks knowledge & experience BUT
"he's got plenty of people under him helping him, so he'll do all right." Same b.s. as with Shrub.

16. Wolf Twisted the Knife in Art TORRES
"Before you go start to get some rest, Art TORRES, how do these words sound: Governor Elect (Ahhhnuld)?" TORRES is such a class act, he replied, "God bless California if that's the case." and Art congratulated the Repuke counterpart.

17. Ahhnuld can get a dime
out of a quart milk bottle with his tongue. All junior can do is chase a lump of nothing in bed.

15. Well, I'm not watching the tv, but
I've checked the votes that have been counted so far. The CA secretary of state's site

http://vote2003.ss.ca.gov/Returns/summary.html

has Yes votes ahead with 52.1%, and No votes with 47.9 %.

That's with 3.6 % of the vote counted. It's changing in just a minute; updated every 10 minutes and will probably be updated by the time I post this. But we're still waiting for 96 %, folks.

I'm uneasy with the recall portion, but it's a lot closer than Arnold v Cruz; I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that no vote. I wonder if the early returns were the early touch-screen voters?

18. They're Giving Maria & Pete WILSON the Credit
Maria WAS stunningly articulate and compelling and sincere (using good for wrong). They said that Pete WILSON was a two term governor and senator, that you can't BUY (haha) "experience than that."

The freak ISSA is ripping Arianna, "I thought you were better than that."

19. Wolf Is Giving Arianna POLITICAL SERMONIZING
"Perhaps this is the time that those of you who have been SO critical of AS to step back and give him a chance to succeed."
