<I think people want to do more than just send a message that they fear will be ignored. This represents their chance to make a real difference. So what if they missed their chance in 2002? Given the choice to correct their mistake now or wait until 2006, guess which way they'll go?> I just don't believe in the recall. It was set up for corruption and I don't believe that this rises to that level. If they really want to send a message, elect Gary Coleman! Seriously, back someone who has absolutely no special-interest ties and who is completely idealistic. <I guess Californians can't trust the government to break its "tax-n-spend" habit, huh? Guess it goes back to being sick and tired of the "game."> Californians have brought forward ridiculous propositions and voted them into law for years. The government can't even raise property taxes. Of course the coffers are going to empty at some point. Then again, the government could not tax and not spend and then what would the point of government be?

GW, Do you really think Arnold will change the political landscape because he is not a career politician? Not a chance. Hey, I don't have any wild expectations myself. But you can't deny that people are sick and tired of the "game." You could say the people are getting so desperate, they're look to just about anyone who will change the game. Do you blame them? Yes, I do blame them. They're taking the easy way out that will cost a fortune and get them no where. And they're not picking a seasoned, capable guy but rather going for the likable actor. Its BS.......typical CA BS. Like I said......GW said it well. ted
