No doubt, California will continue to vote republican to help solve their problems. I fail to understand how a state that appears reliably democrat at national level can deliver the most retarded repugs to run the State itself.

As for Prop H8....

Money interests have made effective use of the initiative process to provide the Republican Party with a veto if they can muster one third of the votes in either chamber.  Fiscal policy has also been gravely compromised by restrictions now written into the state constitution.  All of this needs to be repealed by intitiative.  Easier said than done, considering that the population has been conditioned to think that these provisions are all that keeps them in their houses.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

Gullyvornyah delivers some pretty shitty Democrats at the federal level.  They're the ones who sent us Labour-worthy police state pigs like DiFi and Harman.

Granted, they gave us Waxman and Boxer, too, but I think the fascists trump the good guys on the Gullyvornyah balance sheet.

Not that Virginia's senators are much better, but I'll take Timmy over Der Gropenfuhrer any day of the week.
