A very proud San Franciscan here....

[Hell Hath No Fury]

I checked out the California electorial voter map and am pleased as punch to say that I live in the county that had the highest votes against the recall.

80% of San Francisco County said "no" the recall. :)

THIS is why I love my town, and THIS is why I will stay here forever.

Looking at the map, the usual suspects were at work here -- conservative, monied, southern areas and the sparsely populated central state areas where Rush is King.

It's tough to be a Californian to day, but damn fine to be a San Franciscan.

1. Except for being surrounded on three sides by water

and the other by Repukes, yeah, it's great.

8. All of you in California have my sincere sympathy.

I survived Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, BushI, Clinton, and I'm survivng Bush II. Arnold is just another bad smell pssing through your state. You will survive.

You survived Wilson. Arnie will just be Wilson, redux, as Arnie hasn't a clue how to do the job the booboisie elected him to do. My guess is that Wilson will be pulling his strings.

The problems that sank Davis won't go away. They'll get worse, since the lawsuit against the Enron gougers may go away with just a token settlement.

My guess is that this particular bad smell won't last too long.

10. Nope...

surrounded by lots of great liberal areas in the greater Bay Area, which are then surrounded by GOP. :)

I can go days on end and never run into a Pubbie.

11. Lucky you.

I live in North Beach and run into them every day at the corner grocery store.

12. Super lucky you...

I live in Dallas, TX. You cant sneeze without hitting on of them here. They roam in packs like the Body Snatchers looking for those who are different from them.

13. I'm not exact;ly jealous but...

What's it like?

2. As far as California goes....

God Bless the great S.F Bay Area and no where ELSE!!!!!

3. That's great....

My county, the same one that voted for Gore by 75% went to Ah-nuld/Yes recall by around 59%.

I'm very depressed right now.

4. Interesting stats...the entire SF Bay Area

voted against the recall. I'm beginning to think this is all about media coverage. The LA stations promoted Arnold even more than the SF stations. :eyes:

I'm proud to live here, also.

5. and yet the biggest complainers before this recall

were from Northerners...

7. And yet the LA Times was being bashed

last night because LA was a one paper town.... LA TIMES.... and a "liberal paper" at that. This of course being reported by what according to the latest gallup pole says a "liberal" media.

To the conseratives I say... if it is so fu**ing liberal then don't watch it.

I personally think it is so fu**ing conservative that I haven't watched broadcast news national or local (except an occasional PBS) for the last 3 years.

6. As an added bonus, housing prices should drop under Arnold

You live in a great area! And as The Bush Regime, AKA "Arnold," destroys the California economy and environment and social services and ..., at least housing prices might come back to earth.

9. I saw that earlier

80% of San Franciscans get it! There were a few other areas that were above 60% against the recall and L.A. was against by a small margin. It mirrors the red state - blue state split of the 2000 Presidential election. If I ever move to California then it will definitely be the San Francisco area!

I wonder what retaliation the Simon/Rove people have planned for you guys?
