Darren points out how great yesterdays landslide was in the California special election.
We had a special election yesterday, and the results have astounded me. I’ve never seen anything like this.
How much you wanna bet the politicians still don’t get it. Ahnold is busy getting on Obama’s good side for a bailout.
In addition, Schwarzenegger proposed the federal government should give deficit-laden states like California $5 billion a year for the next three years.
Crazy.

Powerline chimes in as well (they have nice pie charts too!)…
California is in deep trouble. It’s hard to say what comes next, but the common assumption is that California will look to Washington for relief. And why not? When you’re spending funny money, there is little reason to stop. If only you could create wealth by running a printing press, the Obama administration’s policies would make perfect sense. And California’s problems would have an easy solution.
Bold is mine.
Also, I think we as a nation are going to find out that you can’t create wealth by running a prinint press. Can you say “inflation”? I knew you could.
