The Booby Prize

So what will Governor Schwarzenegger face (assuming he wins)? A state with enormous spending and an aversion to tax hikes. Ms. Debra Saunders commented on this issue today.

"Assembly and Senate Democrats live in a la-la land. They think they can spend and spend, and only rich people and smokers will be subject to higher taxes."

"The question is: Does Arnold Schwarzenegger want to be another circus act -- like Davis and state lawmakers -- or will he say what Californians need to hear, knowing full well that there are no applause lines?"

Well, odds are Schwarzenegger will follow the example of President Bush, cut taxes, put no limit on spending, and blame economic woes on the previous administration. I mean, if President Bush isn't going to limit spending, why should Arnold?
