SCHEER: Reject the Recall, California

Reject the Recall, California

By Robert Scheer
August 12, 2003

Excerpts:

"Take him, he's yours."

That was my initial response to the California recall, aimed at a conservative Democratic governor who often has betrayed the state's large progressive base of voters – the same folks who held their noses to elect and then reelect him.

But now I don't buy it. However you feel about Gray Davis, the fact is, this recall has become a shell game, led and paid for by Republicans...

...

If you think politics is all a joke anyway, then vote for whichever opportunist makes you laugh the most. But if you think that meaningful representative democracy requires the scrutiny of the serious primary and election process that Davis has twice weathered, then for a small "d" democrat, a "no" vote on the recall is an obligation.
