...for his special election.

Tonight's Election Brought to You By...
by Doug Heller
 
Taxpayers will pick up the $80 million tab for the extra election that Arnold will announce tonight. But the real sponsors of Arnold's election are the corporate heavy hitters who have plunked down millions to produce Arnold's come-back show. Here's some of how they'll appear in the next six months.

From now on all campaign rallies will begin with a "Go Team Arnold" cheer from the San Diego Charger cheerleaders -- brought to you by team owner Alex Spanos, the Big A's top donor with $2,114,700 delivered.

Silver chocolate coins will be handed out to children along the campaign route courtesy of American Sterling Corporation ($686,200).

In a pitch for the redistricting initiative, Arnold will ride across legislative boundaries on a William Robinson-bred Lusitano steed ($1,650,000).

Each budget reform ad will end with: "For all your budget needs, shop Target ($340,000) and vote Arnold."

One ad, with the theme of getting your fiscal house in order, will be filmed outside of a William Lyons-built home ($716,200). In the ad, Arnold will tout the importance of refinancing debt and remind Californians that at Ameriquest Capital ($1,561,400) you can get a new mortgage in minutes.

And at tonight's announcement, rather than try to explain why he's wasting $80 million on this election, Arnold will simply urge Californians to find out more on Fox News ($502,400), unless they speak Spanish, in which case they should turn to Univision ($2,292,400).

1. Californians...

Have there been any public opinion polls about this? Are people seeing through all this bullshit and realizing what this is all about?

2. I don't know...have to look around

I know his numbers have been lowered and
don't know any polls that have asked whether
we want a "special election".

I'd like a recall election personally...he
was hired to do a job and he spends more time
avoiding it.

5. Many Thanks for the List of BIG $$$

I am boycotting the ones I can (what to do about P.G. and E. --ugh!)
Have you sent this list to buyblue.org? If not, I will. I also will start my writing campaign, telling these SOBs why I will no longer place my CA $$$ in their coffers. Disgusting! Did you see how much money Real Estate is putting into his campaign?
