"Generally, I would say that when the people get to vote on issues that's democracy. CA has taken a good idea and figured out how to overdue it."

As a former CA resident, I LOVED that CA had the initiative process. But, it's been taken over by special interests - most lately the Governator! You have to read them VERY carefully. Often, they are so written by genius obsfucating lawyers as to deceive you into voting for the opposite of what you want.

All in all though, they're a GOOD thing. Just think, if we had a national one, we could get rid of Bush right now, just as CA got rid of Gray Davis!
