It seems funny to me that so many people think that this is actually going to help california.

We are already so far in debt it will take at least a decade to get where we were two and a half years ago, and now we are going to waste even more money on an election that will do nothing for this state.

Gray Davis is doing everything in his power to pass a budget and get us back on track. Sure he's proposing cuts in funding and fee increases to the community colleges, UC's and CSU's but he's making cuts everywhere else. It's not like we are the only people affected. The point is that the old gov. Pete Wilson allowed our utillities to be sold back in the early 1990's, then when 2000 came around and the rolling blackouts began, in a multi billion dollar economy run on electricity the power companies had us by the short hairs. They named their price and we had to pay it, and we're still paying for it today. How anyone can blame it on Davis is rediculous, he was only trying to clean up the mess that the old administration left behind for him. I doubt anyone would have handled it better.

People say that having a republican in office will help get things back on track, how will that person do anything different from Davis to get us in a better situation. When it comes down to it no matter who is in office Davis, a Republican like Issa, or even another democrat, they're going to have to raise taxes and cut spending.

It's like we're sitting in a pot of boilling potatoes with davis, but some of us think it'd be better to jump in the pot of boiling cabage with a republican, no matter what the flavor is we still are sitting in hot water and it's not going to change for a long time.
