ATTENTION anyone watching the Davis recall issue
truthout is going to start paying heavy, daily attention to this issue. If anyone here who watches this story closely comes across any stories or editorials about it that are good, please shoot them to my PM. Many thanks.

3. That's what I'm looking for
We want people to get pissed off enough about this that they will actually decide to get off their asses and vote. Voter lethargy is 90% of what these recall assholes are counting on.

Thanks.

9. Gotta get to the rural Dems. The Dems in larger counties usually
deliver the votes.

Grannyc at bartcop is in Ca. and is a great researcher. She's been on this for awhile. Give her a holler there and you'll pick up a few other Calicoppers, too.

16. Read the FINDLAW articles!
(Fur kryssakes). The DU signal-to-noise on this one issue is appalling.

18. They are saying on all the local channels
That there could 100's of candidates on the ballot. California has 58 counties and they said at a minimum two per county.

20. Lawrence O'Donnell on McLaughlin Group ...
Lawrence O'Donnell was just being interviewed by McLaughlin on PBS and he stated that Issa paid $1 a signature - $1.1 million for this!

He also said he thought that Issa would win! :grr: :grr: :grr:

21. I can't remember where I read that quote, probably NYT
that said that the repukes would thank Issa and walk over his dead body into the governors office, that he is no longer necessary now that the recall is official, he has 2 arrests for car theft, there is not a chance.
