The National Federation of Independent Business – California, a major player in California politics, and the hands-down grassroots representative in Sacramento for small business owners, has come out strongly against Proposition 1A.

According to the NFIB-CA, In order to determine support or opposition to Proposition 1A, they balloted more than 21,000 members during the month of April. Of those who responded, the majority were in opposition to Proposition 1A. The content of the ballot was developed based on information provided by both the support and opposition committees.

They have issued this statement:

I just received a release from the Steve Poizner campaign, calling for two debates between himself, Tom Campbell and Meg Whitman — the leading candidates for the GOP nomination for Governor next year. The proposed topic? The ballot Propositions.

While the idea is a good one, given that Propisition 1A is the most controversial item on the ballot (with its trigger of $16 billion in new taxes), and that Poizner and Whitman both oppose 1A, and Campbell supports it, that debate doesn't sound that exciting to me (no offense intended).

So, I have a better idea. Let's invite Arnold Schwarzegger into the fray. A Schwarzenegger/Campbell vs. Poizner/Whitman debate would be very interesting, indeed…

I would be happy to jointly moderate the event with my friend Abel Maldonado!… Read More

California politico Steve Schmidt, former head honcho of the 2006 Schwarzenegger re-election and big wheel in the campaign of ersatz President John McCain was interviewed on the radio show of longtime FR friend Hugh Hewitt. Hugh posted the transcript of that interview up on his blog here.

On Miss California Carrie Prejean’s statement in support of traditional marriage:

Arlen Specter, elected as a Republican Senator in Pennsylvania, today switched his party registration to Democrat.

I can't say I am shocked, given his embrace of President Obama's hard-left policies.

That said, Specter should follow the principled lead of Phill Gramm. Before being elected to the Senate, Gramm (of Texas) was a Congressman. Elected as a Democrat to the House, he decided to become a Republican, inspired by Ronald Reagan. But he felt that to switch mid-term was unfair to voters. So he resigned his seat, then re-registered Republican, and then ran and was -re-elected in the subsequent special election…… Read More
