C-SPAN question regarding CA recall:

[salmonhorse]

"Is the CA recall result a 'bell weather' for the upcoming national election?"

This is most decidely so. Undesirable incumbants will be removed from office with dispatch and this is not as happy a moment for Nixon-Bush-Cheney-Rove as they would have the nation otherwise believe
while playing 'make believe' in general.

1. I agree with that last caller who commented

that this was a betrayal of the Democratic Party by the Kennedy family.

[The Backlash Cometh]

2. I agree, there is something going on there that I can't yet see.

I'm not ready to call it a betrayal, but I do wonder if there are connections between the Kennedy clan and Republicans that are more than what they appear.

3. 70% of the recall voters were white males and females

that'll be Bush chief strategy to depress turnout of Democratic base voters. Not to say that we shouldn't more of those voters but the base didn't turnout Tues. and there was NO RECORD turnout. Maybe an uptick of a point or two, the long lines were caused by there being thousands less polling places.
