  • Mona Reads Poliblog!

    I blogged (on 8/7)

    more ArnieNews means less KobeNews. The allocation of the broadcast day is, after all, a zero sum game.

    And I wrote, in the Mobile Register this Sunday:

    But the biggest bonus of all may be that with Schwarzenegger throwing his hat into the ring, we may see less Kobe Bryant news. There are, after all, only so many hours in the cable news day.

    And what Does Mona Charon say today?

    The nation owes Arnold Schwarzenegger gratitude for pushing Kobe Bryant out of the headlines for the first time in weeks.

    Case closed.

    Ok, it really wasn't that hard an idea to come up with, but one can dream...

    She must read OTB as well, since she agrees with James on the basics of the recall:

    Still, the concept of recalling a sitting governor for anything less than moral turpitude strikes this conservative as ill-advised.

    And while I agree with her that there are a number of serious problems with CA's recall and initiative provisions, I think she overstates how close the state is getting to full-blown direct democracy.
