Hi Pensters,
My view from down here and from having known people in
the rank file voting public of California is that
they voted for Arnie because he promised them simple,
honest good governance and a 'strong' government. The
government under Davis was seen as weak, which is why
so many people
I wouldn't take issue with the contempt displayed for the
California electorate, the Lib-Dems, and Schwarzenegger
personally. But. The one important progressive proposal
to emerge from the entire recall circus came from...
Schwarzenegger! He promised a program to provide
hydrogen refueling
Peter Camejo put forward a number of progessive proposals, more
important by far than anything put forward by anyone else.
I am repeatedly surprised by the fascination many environmentalists
have with the wonderful future world of hydrogen. Let's see, we build
power plants to generate
The Repug. energy plan has a new nuke to be built in Idaho, I believe, to
help to make hydrogen -- so the Bushits are true environmentalists.

of course, putting it in Idaho would fit with the reactionary nature of much of the
electorate there. A lot of white LAPD cops retire there so they can find similar
people. It's called blue heaven.

Hydrogen is useful because it is not a carbon based
fuel. Global warming and other problems associated
with air/water/Earth pollution can be dealt with in
real substatial ways, if humans get wise and organise
ways to use fuels which don't involve burning carbon
based fuels for energy. I doubt
As Eudora told me, the word Camejo was not found in this piece.
Why, if this was a not-unadmirable uprising, as Marc Cooper argues,
was there not more support for him (or Huffington)? Mike Davis'
explanation - that it was a right white nativist anti-immigrant
uprising fueled by talk shows - seems
obviously, Cooper doesn't like Camejo, for whatever reason. I thought, however, that
one of MC's points was that the progressive wing and ethnic-minority grassroots of the
DP (which are not the object of MC's derision here) sat out because Gray Davis was so
bad. And most of them -- and MC, I'd
But the Chicano vote was pretty evenly divided. Arnold drew on the
nativist impulses, but it was more complex.
