I mean a little grief over loss is ok. Understandable. But you cannot let this get you down too much. Keep in mind the big dumb animal actually has to accomplish something, which I do believe is beyond his perceptive capability.
Regardless of whether or not the system is against you, bitching and moaning will accomplish nothing. Refocusing on the big picture, the ouster of Bush, should be the primary goal. It is a very realistic and quite possible acheivement, and there are qualified candidates ready to do the job.
Sure Dems took it on the chin here, but its a battle. The war can and will be won in the end. So dust yourself off, pick up the hammer, and keep swinging!

Arnold doesn't have to "accomplish" a f***ing thing any more than Bush does. HE IS NOT IN CONTROL HERE.

13. He might not have to accomplish anything but |
|
he opportunity to screw it up I think is higher than his ability to be successful. He has to pass his new agenda with ca. house and senate being controlled by democrats in which he would need 2/3 vote. But, if he starts backing away from conservative issues, he will have McClintock there ready to pounce on him. (I don't live in ca. but I understand he is highly respected among conservative voters)I would be surprised if he is able to anything done. I say good, he campaigned with his experience being "opening Planet Hollywoods and being on movie sets", or something like that. The rethuglican voters are going to get what they deserve because he doesn't have a clue what he is doing.
BTW, any bets that Goergie has his neocons on airplanes high tailing it to Ca? You guys are screwed. I know, I live in Illinois and had to suffer through 4 years of the criminal George Ryan. Did he make national news?

Unfortunately, bitching and moaning are two of the few growth industries left in this Enronomy. If you could buy Stupid Futures, I'd mortgage the house!

15. Calling it "whining'" "bitching," |
|
or "moaning" is dismissive labeling. Much of what is going on post election is as I look at it analysis, and introspection--things that are not happening enough in politics on both sides of the fence. Unfortunately, even Democrats also sometimes treat politics as if it were sports--my team versus your team, it's either win or lose, if you don't win this time get over etc., The whole thing gets to be a series of reactions to reactions.

4. yep, Arnold says he will repeal the car registration tax |
|
and then will have to come up with $5 billion in cuts on that and somehow balance the rest of the budget. Where will he make cuts? health care, education, environment??? it is bound to cause him headaches just as it did Davis.

How in the hell do you propose to "oust" ANYONE when a machine, programmed by repukes, is doing the voting??
If you can answer that question for me, I'll be glad to sit down and shut up.

12. Damn straight. Riposte! |
|
Yes, better it went differently, but CA still has real problems and Arnie's now been handed enough rope to self-terminate.
Now we stay have to stay on him and make that happen.
