Who will lose the recall? The Republican Party. Why?

1) Davis will never let a Republican replace him, will resign first if the polls look bad, but first he will fight back, which he hasn't really begun to do. And Davis has a lot of money to fight. He's just saving it. He also has a lot of truth on his side which has not been heard yet.

2) Bustamante will become governor if Davis resigns. Or he could cut a deal where Dianne Feinstein runs against Arnold and the others and swamps them. Then Feinstein could appoint her own replacement. Maybe even Davis. Both Feinstein and Bustamante are probably a lock for two more terms.

3) Bustamante is the GOP's worst nightmare. He would unleash millions of previously non-existent Democratic Hispanic voters and make the male white vote irrelevant.

4) There are way too many Republicans in the race to unite around any one. And Arnold may be popular but he has no experience and a lot of skeletons in his closet. Riordan would make a good governor. But the others are all right-wing egomanics looking for a free ride. And they're the ones funding the recall.

Bottomline, the recall is a big waste of time. Bush will locse California in 2004 by at least 60-40, probably 65-35.
Everyone remembers who ripped us off in 2000 for 20 billion, the Houston energy companies, whose leader is Bush.

Also, Bush has much worse deficits than Davis on a per capita basis. Much worse. Therefore the GOP are total hypocrites if they attack Davis for his deficits.
