If only we had a recall process to rid us of this useless coalition

THE voters of California deserve an Oscar for sending an actor to the governor’s mansion, rather than a politician.

Arnold Schwarzenegger may or may not be a serial groper but a majority of the good people of the golden state would prefer to see him in charge of their future instead of the rather unfortunately-named Gray Davis, who groped too much in the dark and left them with a legacy of a $38 billion deficit.

But the Californians are lucky, because they have a recall mechanism whereby they can oust a regime they are totally disillusioned with. Let's face it, you can't get too much more disillusioned than a $38 billion deficit.
