No On Recall, Yes On Bustamante

The election is on.

In less than two weeks, Californians will decide whether or not to recall Governor Gray Davis, and if they do, who will replace him.

Now, I love Arianna Huffington. I was registered Green myself until the 2000 election, and Peter Camejo sounded great in the first debate.

The truth is, however, that this election is down to three men: Gray Davis, Cruz Bustamante, and Arnold Schwarzenegger. This means we have two chances out of three to keep California out of play in the 2004 Presidential election. Governor Davis is not perfect -- what man is -- but he's turned his administration around, fighting the Enrons and working to stabilize the budget. And Lt. Governor Bustamante, meanwhile, is notably more progressive than Davis, which is why Issa is urging his supporters to vote "No" on the recall if Ahnold and McClintock are both in the race on October 7th.

Of equal importance is Proposition 54, the so-called "racial privacy" initiative. This abomination is basically intended to suppress data that proves the continuing racial bias evident in our country.

We have to beat these guys. If you live in California, get out and vote -- no on recall, yes on Bustamante, and no on 54. If not, please support us however you can. It may be a circus to the rest of you, but we have to live with the clowns once the tents come down.
