Will Kevin be the next speaker?
According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Kevin's turned the dems into Nervous Nellies.
They also note that Assembly Republicans selected a new leader on Monday, Kevin McCarthy, R-Bakersfield, who has a reputation for savvy and prolific fund-raising prowess, and they worry about losing control of the Assembly in the general election next year.

from the Newsmax.com Left Coast Report ...
Dee Snider was elated to discover that his Twisted Sister tune “We're Not Gonna Take It” has become the unofficial theme song of Schwarzenegger’s gubernatorial campaign.
Snider explained to UPI that the 1984 tune, along with the other songs on Twisted Sister's breakthrough third album,“Stay Hungry,” was inspired by none other than Arnold himself.
“We even sent a platinum [record] award to Arnold,” Snider said.
The Left Coast Report hears that, not to be outdone, Gray Davis’ unofficial campaign song is “Taxman.”

I was caught in the middle of a hornet's nest at the voter registration event with Maria Shriver today. The anti-recallers were primarily male union thugs. Clearly these guys had walked alot of picket lines and had some aggressive altercations outside the factory gates. With over 100 people shouting slogans (both anti and pro recall) Maria remained calm and focused, chatting up the press with a smile on her face.

I just got a new (old) CD love it!
GIRL TALK
We like to chat about the dresses that we'll will wear tonight,
We chew the fat about our tresses and the neighbor's fight.
Inconsequential things that men don't really care to know
become essential things that women find so "appropo".
But that's a dame, we're all the same.
It's just a game, we call it girl talk, girl talk.
We all meow about the ups and downs of all our friends,
the "who", the "how", the "why", we dish the dirt, it never ends.
The weaker sex, the speaker sex the mortal males behold
but tho' they joke they wouldn't trade us for a ton of gold.
So here we'll stay and gab a way
but hear me say that after girl talk talk to me.

Jay Leno: "I understand, the other candidates in the debate, they wanted to put an empty chair on the stage to represent Arnold Schwarzenegger to make him look bad, you know, since Arnold wasn't there. Then they realized, 'Uh-oh, what if the empty chair wins?'"

I just got back from Arnold's Sacramento fundraiser. There were approx 300 people in attendance and the ticket was $1000 per person, so he made some bank. He gave an incredibly fabulous inspirational speech. After, as he greeted the people... he said to me "You have a wonderful smile, an encouraging smile." I had some things I was going to say to him, offers of help, etc., but after his statement I thought this is perfect, why say more :^)

From The Condor ...
"But debates do not really tell us whether a candidate can govern and lead. In fact, some of the skills of the debater are antithetical to leadership. KQED's Krasny pointed out that political debates need heat and tension. That is just what a governor, who is facing hidebound ideologues in both parties, does not need. His job is to defuse heat and tension and fashion a solution. "
More relevant to governing than debate skills, would be to have candidates make a sales call. Persuade someone to do what you want them to do. But we do have that test - it's the money race. A candidate who inspires people to give up their cold, hard cash is very persuasive.
