A Little GOP Defiance Never Hurt Anyone
Arnold Schwarzenegger has somewhat defiantly issued President Bush a resounding no on his request for the California Governor to issue another 1500 guardsmen to the Arizona/Mexico border for enhanced support.
While I don't think that Governor Schwarzenegger can do much to save a miserably failed term, he can at this point play the role of what baseball fans refer to as the spoiler. The team that is clearly out of the race but somehow miraculously becomes a force to be reckoned right when it is too late.
Good for him.
Not that the GOP needs much help spoiling their own efforts at this point. Where the democrats can't seem to buy a solid decision, the republicans are making far more than their share and drowning themselves with their own policy.
Still, looking at the nearly lost state of the democrats disorganization, any self-defeatism on the part of the red is assuredly welcome.
