nope california is the toughest state to run, for the same reason that it is so successful.

California has a grassroots proposition system where any special interest can put a measure on the ballot and change the state consitution. That is the issue, it is a blessing and a curse.

For example CA put a proposition on the ballot to build a 90 billion dollar european style Bullet Train to canvas the state. The people want things like that and can push them on the ballot. Same with mandating clean energy and cafe standards. The people want it- it goes on the ballot. Thats why the state is so forward in so many ways. The problem is paying for all this crap. The government is stuck with the bill. Its a blessing and a curse something that Palin could never handle. Arnold is doing a great job and I would support him for president if it was possible.

I am sure most reading this don't understand this about CA, like the idiots in Utah who think CA is mismanaged and have no idea that this grassroots proposition system exists or what it means.
