I won't try to speak for anyone else, but here's the deal:
The governator told us this was gonig to happen. He said he was going to stop it. We voted him into office based on that promise.
Then, he decided he was going to actually do it (silly man). He went to the state legislature and asked them to pass several new bills that would prevent what is happening now. The democrats in Sacramento said "no way dude, we're having fun spending money we don't have and screwing up this state."

Arnold said you don't do it, I'll take it to the voters. The democrats laughed at him.
Arnold got it on the ballot so the voters could make the democrats sit up straight and stop being idiots.
Unfortunately, Arnold underestimated the power of the democrat unions. Teachers union, fire fighters union, nurses union, police union, etc.
The democrats in Sacramento told all the unions that if Arnold got his way, the democrats won't be able to keep giving the union members everything they want. Boy they didn't want that to happen.

They all rallied against Arnold and his reform bills. No reform! they cried. They collective spend an incredible amount of money on negative campaign adds. The teacher's union spent every penny it had, and then raised dues and spent that, and then borrowed every penny they could and spent that. They were serious.
The moron idiot mush-head average California voter allowed him or herself to be brainwashed by all these negative campaign ads and changed his or her mind. They were all for reform when Arnold was running against Davis, but now that the unions had them all hypnotized, they were against any type of fiscal reform. Evidently the force has a strong influence on the weak-minded.
The unions set out to destroy the state in exchange for more money in their pockets and they have succeeded. They should have been kicked out of the state for good. Every stinking one of them.

So you want to know what I think?
I think the idiots who allowed themselves to be brainwashed by the tax and over-spend democrats deserve everything they are getting, but the rest of us don't.

The only good that can possibly come from this is maybe, just maybe they'll split California into two states and we can get away from the bleeding heart liberal communists in the bay area.
