I would say, “I’m sure you did your best. My condolences.”

No matter how it turned out.

“California is in deep financial doodoo. So, how much does holding a recall election cost?”

About $66M, however, I believe Jay Leno said it made $110M. He didn’t say how.

SNL was funny, they did a spoof of Arnie saying he resigned because he was way over his head & that Calif would probably owe 3 times more with his plan than the one Davis had.

I think we should all respect the decision of the Californians.

Cute. Now we have a governor who I read can’t pronounce the name of the state properly & not only that, but I have yet to meet a Californian who even knows what ‘California’ translates to.

I’d say both have moments of extreme stupidity, but would never claim one or the other was outright evil. \*\*

If you honestly believe that no one would claim either party is evil, you must _never_ go to the pit. “Evil republicans” is a frequent topic. Try searching there for “evil republicans” and “stupid liberals” and you’ll find plenty of evidence of everyone knowing which party is evil and which is stupid.

I don’t know but he sure is signing as many bills into law as he can.

I rather welcome the lack of media hype.
