There are too many cowards and comfortable people holding elective office in the state house. Why should any incumbent on either side be comfortable in the next election?
For our votes & Trust, we have only received a disastrous budget crisis and national ridicule in return.
We need more fiscally responsible politicians elected this time around. Actually, we just need people of courage.
That would be a good place to start.
When it comes to Schwarzenegger, i dare anyone to point out to me where he has brought real reform to California. He has not proven to be a reformer. He has proven to be a con-former. His brand is very phony.
He only increased the partisan crisis by forcing stupid ideas like his explosively damaging Initiatives in 05; remember that bungle? And now, with his manipulation of the budget crisis into a PR Campaign, things are just getting so ridiculous.

The most irritating issue I have with Arnold is his inability to be able to pronounce Caleeefornia right after being elected to replace Governor Davis and then doing even a worse job than his replacement.
And you’re right, Jason, there shouldn’t be any one of these incumbents given any more terms to continue the onslaught of us taxpayers. Send them all packing no matter what party they claim to be affiliated with.

I just read this..and I cant sop laughing
“We need a fantastic change of leadership...There are too many cowards and comfortable people holding elective office in the state house. Why should any incumbent on either side be comfortable in the next election?”
Yet you support Heather Fargo..who is a crook and is incompetent.
And don’t even reply with KJ this and KJ that.. you obviously have an agenda, don’t waste your breath.
LOL Your a Fargonian Droid!
Typical doublespeak by a Democrat hmm do you work for the Party?

Slow down gadfly, you’re going to have a heart attack! Wouldn’t you think that others are entitled to an opinion, too? Wow, that’s the most ignorant and stupid blog on this website so far. Please come back after you’re done laughing, apparently at yourself. KJ may well be in handcuffs before the election.

Gadfly, Here is a news flash for you. Im not a democrat nor a fargo supporter, but she is no crook. KJ has got big problems. One problem is that he is worshiped by Kool-Aid drinkers like you who over look all of his failures. Its incredible.
IM not a demo either. Im a conservative. Read closer and you will see. Plus anonymous bloggers a cowards. If you want to be real brave, Use your real name on your starter-kit blog.
Good day.

You might want to check out my website Jason… I am the farthest from a kool aid drinker you will ever know. I support KJ for one main reason… I want all incumbents thrown out of office. Fargo is a crook and so is Ray Tretheway...what KJ has allegedly done, he will not be arrested for, at the very most he will have to repay some funds and a fine. If you had any idea of what Fargo has done you would change your tune on her. Keep an eye on the newspapers is all I can say.
I am not posting anonymously, I post under a pseudonym due to the nature of the work I do. I don’t need nut jobs coming to my office or harassing me because I take unpopular positions of controversial subjects. I believe in internet free speech, and what I have to say is the point not who I am; so stop trying to minimize the message by attacking the messenger.
I would say you’re a neo-conservative, as I seem to recall you claim that yourself. Well Neo-Cons are not Conservatives, they are Bush/Cheney/Wolfowitz/Kristol/PNAC drones who support Imperialism/Interventionism/Israel at all costs and who also support greedy bankers and corporations.
I am an Independent American myself and I detest both Democrats and Republicans they have no independent thoughts and are destroying our country while skipping and holding hands.

Oh, Your no independent.
Well, I did read your blog, but I don’t respect anything you say because your hiding behind a fake name. So I stand by what I said. Its cowardly to call people ‘Crooks” when you are using a fake name. That only bring cyberspace down. Ive never used a fake name to hide. If you really believe what you write – say what ever you want but use your real name.
And – yes there is a price to pay if you really want to put your opinions out there. I have paid it. Ive been persecuted by Left-wing crazies at my work place for my blog. Ive had freakys take my newspaper articles from the Sunday and bring it to work. Ive had to deal with very evil people. But the truth survives and I want people to read what I write. So, what’s to be afraid of?
Unless you know your view point is really off base?
Fargo and Johnson are both good people who are both trying to make a difference, this I believe. I know people in both camps. They are many good people working on both sides. Now, KJ has had his issues which you don’t care about – that’s fine. But Fargo is no crook (she has had issues that she could have been better on).
You have no idea what you are talking about. Your telling me to read the “The papers”? You kidding me right? What part should I read? The parts with KJs dirty Laundry on the front page?
And you don’t really know what a Neo-Con is and you ARE a left-winger Kool-Aid drinker if you really do believe what you just posted. And a person supporting Israel is wrong? Lord, You need to repent for your Anti-Semitic views.
Thanks for reading
