What if Davis resigns before the recall?
wouldn't it be worth it to derail the repugs plans to have a shot at those electoral votes????????

I wish he'd do that, like a day before the recall election.

1. It won't make a difference, the election goes forward anyway
I don't think he should resign. He may not have done everything right but he certainly has done nothing worthy of resigning.

2. I was wondering the same thing.
I don't know if Davis deserves this or not. But I don't think a recall is right the year after an election, either, especially a recall that can be brought about in such a politically deviant manner (a millionaire hiring people to go out and collect signatures).

I think Davis needs to look at the likelihood that this is NOT going to go his way. If resigning halts the recall and places Bustamente in the Governor's office, then maybe he should consider it. This may not be a battle worth fighting, IMO.

I also think that if he is going to resign, sooner is better than later, if for no other reason than to save the taxpayers money. That, at least, is something in his legacy that they will not be able to complain about.
