California Special Election Watch: Time is Running Out for Legislative Compromise

KCRA Sacramento has Special Election: ‘Time Running Out’ For Legislative Compromise.

All of his reform propositions have made the ballot. Now, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger returns to the state Capitol from his summer break ready to do what he does best — campaign.

On Tuesday, with the state preparing to print voter materials, Schwarzenegger acknowledged that political war will be launched this fall with a special election on Nov. 8.

“Time is running out this week. So, it could easily be that we will not come up with a compromise. And the key thing is that we move forward then,” Schwarzenegger said.

“We shouldn’t talk further because the time has run out. We tried to. We have since January. We did a lot of talking. It’s just not there,” said Assembly Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy.

The Democrats have had months to compromise with the Governator.

What have Speaker Fabian Nunez and Senate Pro Tem Don Peralta done instead:

*Had their friends in the public employee unions run expensive and negative personal television ads against the Governor.

*Had the California Nurses Association Stalk Arnold

*Had the Attorney General (Democrat Bill Lockyer) file a lawsuit attempting to bar Proposition 77, the Redistricting Initiative from the November California Special Election Ballot.

* Filed an ethics lawsuit against Schwarzenegger.

Enough with the talk.

Bring on the campaign!

BTW Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has already won.
