"Texas oil companies have descended upon California to overturn a California law,"

Stop nutmeg & prop 23 from ambushing California!

"Briefly, California has higher worker productivity and higher state (economic product) per capita than Texas. � California's rank remains very high on indices like new businesses created, proportion of green venture capital in the state and quality of our research universities (and) as bad as our K-12 system is, Texas is worse."

1. All they had to do was put the phrase

"Texas oil companies." Californians and Texans have not traditionally been the best of friend so the phrase hit the state-pride chord. Kudos to the "No on Prop. 23" peoples.
