Also, when the California courts hold that the Mayor of SF is bound by state law (duh!), somehow Arnold will get the credit. Probably because of the "message" the "people of Kah-lee-for-nyah" sent to "Sah-crah-mayn-toh" with the recall vote.
Your tendency to liberally assume that the good people of the country will hear the conservative message and not what the left says is typically depressing. The honest people of this country often recognize the smell of manure (and not because so many of them in the Patch work in it all day). Polls show there isn't nearly enough support for an amendment. It is true that a vigourous minority that feels strongly can impose its preferences on a less-strong-minded minority, see, e.g., Prohibition, but it looks like they're not going to get 67 senators, let alone 2/3 of the House.
