We Californians give a big thanks to the grass root organizations who pulled this upset off. California geographically votes overwhelmingly conservative. Two large populations centers in our state, LA and the Bay Area, are heavily weighted by illegals and welfare families thus swinging the vote away from the farm and ranching communities that produce the largest percentage of income in the state. We will be following Colorado's lead with or without the GOP help or lack of. IT's time for Americans to move away from the two main parties as they no longer represent America or the Constitution

What I love is the "let's move past this..." stuff. If they'd won, they would be shouting it from the rooftops and rubbing our noses in it until the next "regularly scheduled election". And then going farther, because they had learned that they could get away from it.
whee!
And it sends a lovely message to Bloomberg, who personally contributed generously to the losing side.

This reads like an obituary. for the Left!

From the article:
"It is not time, for either side, to ponder more ways to use the recall process to undermine our system of regular, democratic elections."

They managed to get this arse backwards....

Object: You are there to represent the will of your constituency. If you didn't know what it was, you should have found out. Loyalty to the national party is nice but when it goes counter to your constituents' will, better look to the folks that took you to the dance.

I hope a lesson was learned. Voting your conscience without regard for the rights of your constituency (all of them) is asking to be removed from office. You can't commit tyranny of the majority or minority to suit your own desires in contradiction with the rights spelled out in the constitution many of the people still hold dear.

"Enough already." Yes of this insane attempt by the dems to destroy our constitution.

a little less than 16K total voters, combined 9K+ for recalling
