The Republican Right Wing Machine is not over yet in California
It's not over yet. Just when we thought that Ahhnold was the last of it, there's Kelsey Grammar stating that he would run for Barbara Boxer's US Senate seat. I'm convinced that they are already making a rap sheet about her.

Although Republicans always put up challenges to Boxer, they never succeed. However, Grammar does have name recognition and Republicans might associate her as being too "Davis-like". I'm caustiously optimistic, but I refuse to take any chances.

6. RIGGING
So, the way I read the BBV's is that the Democratic leaders would let something like this slide right by? Democratic elitists in the corporate world? Democratic judges all over the country? They're all going to say, "Oh! It's all rigged now? Oh, Okay." That's what BBV is asking us to believe. Think about it. I have looked into it pretty extensively the last few weeks and think it's all ridiculous. Let's move on to REAL issues. NOBODY would let anybody get away with rigging the electoral system for one party over the other. That's accusing A LOT of powers-that-be in the Democratic party of complicity. In fact, it's an insult.

As for California --- rigging? While Gray Davis and the Democratic Party say nothing? I don't think so. BBV is a ridiculous distraction.

4.  but they are
just like our neighbors; we see them on tv all the time.
We like them and their rich, varied lives and we hope the
trickle down theory works on our lives.

I could have thrown up when I checked the tv to see
the results. I just cannot fathom how ignorant the voters
are. I'm guessing they are easily swayed by the glitz
and glitter of the rich, to say nothing of the Hollywood
movie star allure.

I do believe this country is damned and doomed because
I can see all 50 governors being rep. and all representatives
and senators republican.

The great experiment lasted 227 years. Or 224 if I use
*'s appointment in 2000.

3. Kelsey said he would run on this platform:
"I would try and show everyone that rich people aren't against poor people."

Personally, I think he's just blowing smoke out his ass. Is there anyone less clued in to reality than him?

5. I read that too; it's disgusting
I want to run on the platform that you're all inferiors and you shouldn't be whimpering about your lot in life. I deserve everything; shut up.

7. Boxer has always been at the top of
their list, they absolutely hate her because she is an unapologetic Liberal. I have heard that one of the goals of the recall was not only to get Davis out but Boxer too. The plan was that the Democratic Party would have to sink so much money and energy into trying to save Davis that it would drain them and make it easier to take out Boxer next time, the BASTARDS! :grr: :grr: :grr:
