Recall Mania!! The never-ending recallathon that could occur in California
Ok, if Davis loses his recall and is replaced by a Repug then the Dems just recall the Repug and replace him with a Dem followed by the inevitable recall of the recalled-replacement's replacement

lol, awesome!

2. If I were a Dem in CA, I'd already start the Recall the Recall effort
Get a petition out for every last Repug who has announced or is evcen suspected to announce and start collecting signatures now.

Spen 35 million dollars and hold an election every quarter.

Never even let a governor get settled into the governor's mansion. The Repugnant party started this and the only way to fight fire is with fire.

4. that is my idea , Walt
Edited on Sat Jul-26-03 03:32 PM by mitchtv
be waiting 100' or whatever from the polls witha recall petition for each major thug candidate. and one for any local thug politician who is around. Take the fight to them. The dems in my area (palm springs) are weak , cowardly and poor , however. I feel I am alone sometimes. But when I speak, people listen, but the higher ups are too full of themselves to listen to a regular person.

7. The law won't allow it..

... for one thing, there is a grace period before a recall can happen. I believe it's 6 months. So circulating such a petition wouldn't make any sense until somebody's been in office for a few months, because once you start circulating, there is a timeframe in which you are required to gathered the needed number of signatures.

3. this may empower the bush* impeachment effort...if CA can
recall the Governor, why not the NATION recall bush*....

these reTHUGlicans keep screaming about the Governor's LIES, deception and mis-handling of money...and many people throughout the Nation are beginning to realize that bush* is lying, deceiving and mis-handling money in a very spectacular way....

I think the public display of the "bush* bloated human head trophies" is not helping either...

6. It's awsome and expensive.
I wish we could circulate a petition declaring the GOP subversive and unAmerican and asking them to outlaw it. But that wouldn't be very Democratic.

8. Let's all vote
for Michael Savage! That'll show 'em.

It might almost be worth it for the political theater that would result.

Can I run my cat? Gilbey would look really interesting sitting in the Governor's chair. He likes to play in the toilet. Wonder if Michael does, too?
