Why isn't Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger being recalled in CA?
State spending is about the same as when Davis was in office, 34% for Davis, 32% for Arnold, a $14 billion deficit, and Arnold has accepted more money from special interests.
All this after spending more than $43 million for the recall. Now teachers are being laid off, services cut and the Govenator takes no responsibility. I think this proves Republicans are hypocrites.
EDIT:
mike c; my question is far from childish. I simply want to know why Arnold isn’t being held to the same standard as Gray. My response is via the vote, which is how I take action. I could pose the same statement to you, why whine about my question; instead do something to affect change other than answering questions you deem puerile.
And your contention that Democrats are disjointed and unorganized is a sham. One can only assume you support this hypocrisy.

I suggest you stop asking puerile questions on the internet if you are so outraged and do something real in your area to effect the change you say you want.
As another poster said it proves nothing but the fact that the Democrats are so disjointed and unorganized they can't function.

No, it proves California voters are fickle. Arnold promised to do several things once elected. He also promised that if he couldn't get them pushed through, he'd call a special ballot and put each item up for the voters to decide.
He did exactly what he said he'd do: he put his campaign items up to the voters, and they defeated each item by embarrassingly huge margins.
So Arnold figured, okay, I'll do what the voters want me to do and be a friggin' liberal. It's sad, but that's the way it happened.
Schwarzenegger stuck his neck out and the California voters left him hung out to dry. All it proves is that they only voted for him because he's a movie star.
(give me all the thumbs-down you want, it doesn't change the facts.)
---ADDED:
It's HILARIOUS that you give no blame to the DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED California Congress. You're the hypocrite.

California has been called the land of "fruits and nuts". Even the Republicans are liberal. Arnold is doing what the voters want. Isn't that what politicians do? He is pretty popular in California I hear.

Schwarzenegger is the greatest governor California has ever had. I absolutely love his policies. Compare them to those of Gray Davis, for instance. If circumstances were different, he'd make a good president too.
