Remember when Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R-Calif.) ran for re-election? Here’s a refresher:
Californians dodged a bullet. Instead of having their taxes raised by $10 billion (let’s just accept the ad’s figures), they now have a $12 billion tax increase as part of a budget that reduces education funding by $8.4 billion and borrows another $11 billion.
It’s worth asking why the 2003 recall vote ever needed to happen.
