LAT: Protests Reshape Race for Governor

[Rose Siding]

SACRAMENTO — As protesters took to the streets of Los Angeles in record-setting numbers in recent days, the highest-ranking immigrant in California, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, was asked what should be done about the millions of people living in California illegally.

"I'll let the geniuses in Washington figure all that out," he replied.
.....
Dowd said Schwarzenegger "is not a Bush Republican, and he is not a Wilson Republican. He is going to come up with his own policies."
.....
Angelides said he supported the "pragmatic, compassionate" bill in Congress offered by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) over a more conservative measure by Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.).

Feinstein's measure would allow about 12 million illegal immigrants to become legal residents and would create a guest-worker program. Sensenbrenner's would make it a felony to be in the country illegally and require a 700-mile fence along the Mexico border.

1. Cruz Bustamante should

run for Gov. on a commercial like "Under the proposed legislation by Republicans, I could be governor, but I'd end up spending all my time trying to get back into the US, despite being a citizen . . ."
