timepiececlockI'm so embarrassed about this whole Gray Davis recall. One political faction makes the entire state look foolish for their campaign. Did Davis commit a crime? Was he immorally or unethically abusing our state resources on a radical level? No. We should not be trying to recall an elected official just because some people disagree with his policy decisions. That's not what the recall system is for. The Republican party is invalidating the entire election process by doing this. And the money. Millions of dollars wasted for a recall that shouldn't be happening in the first place, when our state is already suffering massive deficits? Not what we need. Besides, why don't people realize that its the state legislature, not Davis, that controls the budget? Why don't we toss them out too?

And it's not even the Republicans as a whole, but small portion who see this as their chance to grab power.
What really amazes me was watching people who would never go near the Repulican Party avidly getting signatures because it'd been presented to them as being necessary to the good of the state and never realizing who was behind it.
