WHAT ARNOLD SHOULD DO NOW
After a richly deserved victory cigar my advice would be to revise the California Constitution so that the state can function fiscally in the event of a downturn.

It's really the only direction that offers hope of compromise with the Democrats by appealing to their political self-interest without conceding too much on taxes ¶ 10:12 AM
