What are politics doing here?
Schwarzenegger hold expensive special election and puts his support behind four propositions, California voters say no to all of them.
On a completely petty level I must tell you that feels good to see my state's Governor, one of the biggest pawns of the Republican machine, fail this hard. All that smug confidence about being the people's Governor now has no credence at all, if it ever did. This just exposes what a waste of tax money this whole shebang was with the election alone costing, from the figures I've heard, between 50 to 70 million dollars.
I'm glad that threats to women's privacy (Prop. 73), teachers (Prop. 74), and unions (Prop. 75) have been stopped but I would have preferred if we just didn't have to go through all this in the first place. Schwarzenegger likes to quote his movies to us thinking it passes for something like charm. Now here's one that best describes his situation: Last Action Hero.
