He ran on a platform of reform on several issues which believe it or not, he actually tried to follow through on!
The liberal state legislature would not play along, so he took these issues to the public and let them vote on them.
Only problem is, he didn't count on the teachers union borrowing every single penny they could get their hands on to spend on a campain of misinformation, the firefighters and police unions fought him, and the nurses union fought him.
Of course he stood no chance when they all ganged up on him, the greedy ba$tards spent hundreds of millions of dollars in a coordinated smear campain just so they could keep lining their pockets. "Oh, I don't care what's good for the state, only what's good for me". Freaking union money grabbing scum.

His propositions went down in flames due to the sheep mentality of the voters who think that if there are a whole bunch of commercials telling them something, it must be true. So much BS, so many lies, all the time he took the high road and took the slingsd and arrows and lies. Didn't stand a chance against his enemies who said and did whatever they could to win. It's easy when they aren't restrained by any semblance of morality.

Afterwards, he said OK, I tried to do what I promised but you showed me that's not what you wanted, so I'll try something else.
Since then he has been flip-flopping all over the place, spending waaay too much time and money trying to back a bunch of absolutely ridiculous global warming laws.
He is genuine, he is trying, but how do you give people what they want when they aren't smart enough to figure out what they want or they change their minds about twice an hour?

He needs to do what he thinks is right, not what the moron voters want him to do. He works hard and tries hard but he's too much of a regular guy to be sucessful in politics, he needs to be more of a blood-sucking lying scum lawyer politician. Did I actually say that?
