Blogs respond to recall

The California Insider blog of reporter Daniel Weintraub has some interesting insight on the Arnold triumph in California. In an interview with Sheila Kuhl, a Democrat politico, Kuhl had this to say when asked what exactly the California Senate would need to save California from:

KUEHL: From ignorance. This guy has no idea how to run a state. One of two things will happen. He'll have his own ideas and no way to carry them out. I mean he has already proposed three things that the governor cannot do. He wants to roll back the car tax on his own by fiat, which he can't do. He wants to tax the Indians, which he can't do. He doesn't know anything about running the state. So either he will propose a lot of stuff he can't do and we'll have to govern, or he'll be pretty well manipulated by people who have an agenda, very much the way I think the president of the United States has been handled by people who are really telling him how to do these things.
