7. I like shiny things ...
And apparently so do a lot of FUCKING MORONS in California.

Once again the Republicans make a mockery of elections and the Democratic process in general.

The people of California should be ashamed. I really thought that as the recall approached, people would sober up and realize that the Governors Mansion is no place for Arnold.

I predict that when the next Governors race comes, the goal will be to get rid of Arnold (similiar to how American is reacting to AWOL).

Truly sad day.

Cheers
Drifter

We had a scare, but it turned out to be nothing.

Puts this recall stuff into perspective.

11. Pukes can no longer claim without resounding snickers.......
They are the party of family values. Folks I don't think This "gropinator" stuff ends here. Also - Palast's report on "the Gropinator's" tie to Ken Lay and the Enron deal has not hit mainstream news yet. Hell hath no fury like a Caleeeeeeforea voter scorned .... Maybe the Gropinator will get his own "gang-bang" before it's all over with..... Karma is moving pretty fast these days .....

12. Some positive spin on this recall mess?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=490908#491273

'The silver lining on the black cloud'


So Arnold is the winner of this recall sham.

Hope the GOP knows what it's getting itself into.

Schwarzenegger inherits an absolute mess, and a bunch of witty sound bytes will not clean this mess up.

Arnold will make a total ass out of himself, irritating Californians even more, and tilting the staate Democrat even more.

Now THAT'S the prize!

Besides, Arnold is a RINO. Much farther left than your typical neocon. Never understood what they saw in him, aside from name recognition and free publicity.

I'm not whining about this. Not accusing the GOP of playing dirty. But I am laughing my way to next year's elections.

On to the presidency!

13. Oh .... One REALLY good one !!!!
This will no doubt invigorate Dems to work even harder to get that jack ass out our West Wing. Maybe in a good way, it will take something like this (The Gropinator) to give the the Dems the ultimate kick start to kicking the Chimp to the curb. What do you think ?

< with all this horse manure, theres got to be a pony in here somewhere >

15. I think....
this means that Bushie will be toast in 2004, since no way in hell can Arnold turn this state around in one year. When people in CA get angry about the economy, you can bet they will want an even bigger change in the office that matters. If Bev Harris can get the voting problem fixed by then, people in CA will overwhelmingly vote to get the little Dicktator out of D.C. Keep your chins up - it ain't over by a long shot. In 3 years we'll run Dean Cain (Superman) for Governor.
