I'm really worried about...

[YvonneCa]

... this California thing. What do you all think about this? Am I over-reacting?

1. No, you're not over-reacting. I only wonder if this will pass. Because if it

does we just might be screwed. Especially with the performance of 'our' dems lately.

2. Just another trick out of rove's playbook. Not good for anyone.

[YvonneCa]

6. So, how do we get people to pay attention? n/t

[dkofos]

7. You don't. They will either wake up on their own, when things get bad

enough, or they will stay in dreamland forever.
That's just the way people are.

[YvonneCa]

5. With it's given title...

...it might pass.

3. The first two links don't work - and now I'm curious. n/t

[YvonneCa]

4. Links updated...

...let me know if they still don't work for you.

8. So now the Repubs are trying to

swing steal California? The DNC has got a lot to deal with, but it looks like they're up to the task under Howard Dean.

[YvonneCa]

10. Howard Deanat the DNC does make...

...things better. The 50-State Strategy should help with situations like this.

9. Note

from Talking Points Memo:

Is the measure likely to pass? Californian Kevin Drum believes it's unlikely, but adds that Dems will probably have to spend quite a bit to ensure its defeat (which is probably the point of the initiative).

[YvonneCa]

11. I want to believe this...

...but I also never thought they'd get Grey Davis out.
