Today's Commentary: State GOP Declares War

 

by Shawn Steel - Statewide (bio) (email)(print)

 
3-28-2008 12:01 am
In a strongly worded conference call to Republican leaders and County Chairs, California Republican Party Chairman Ron Nehring declared war on Senate President Don Perata.  Never in the history of California politics has an elected official been recalled for casting a vote against tax increases. 

Senator Jeff Denham (pictured left), SD 12, whose district includes the counties of Monterey, San Benito, Stanislaus and Madera, represents a broad agricultural region with socially conservative Democrats.  The district has about 48% Democrats with 39% Republicans. After enormous pressure, Denham refused to cast his vote with Democrats on last summer's budget bill.  The recall election is set for June 3, 2008. 

Outgoing and heavily FBI investigated Senator Perata (right), with over $7,000,000 in potential campaign funds, wants to do more than punish Senator Denham. Sure Perata was angry he couldn't get his super tax and spend budget last summer. But it's more than that.
