California is a DEMOCRATIC STATE! Freepers, Fundies, & Arnie SLAPPED DOWN!

I woke up to see all of Arnie's and fundies propositions LOST solidly and convincingly!

California, unfortunately home of FreeRepublic.com in Fresno, and despite them, is leading the way for Democrats in 2006!

Props goes to the dems in VA and NJ, plus St. Paul MN! What a great night! We had this coming for a very long time folks.

1. It was a relief. 73 and 75 were close

We've managed to keep the regressive forces at bay for another year.

2. yes they were close at first but...

...at the end of the day it was about scoreboard and we won. The anti abortion issue was a major slap at the fundies who tried to use it is a a classic GOP "wedge" issue to get out their voters. Something like that would have worked like a charm in TX or AL but not California. The voters are smarter than that and did not fall for it.

4. Yes that 73 scared me

We didn't get Donna Frye for Mayor but I have a feeling she will make a comeback. I don't have much confidence in Sanders.
