California is going to take themselves off the cliff culturally and economically, fiscally. They are going to be at the trough in Washington wanting a bailout.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
California is going to be quite good for the Democrats. But the rest of the country is a draw.
Californians are worried about whether they will have a job along with ballooning federal spending and deficits.
The biggest problem that we have is that California is being run now by special interests. All of the politicians are not anymore making the moves for the people, but for special interests and we have to stop that.
Even people on the liberal side are starting to worry about going off a fiscal cliff.
Now, 'the fiscal cliff' is a name that the media came up with, but some of us have been saying for years, 'You have got to stop the out of control federal spending, or you will end up at this point.' We're there.
Unless action is taken soon - unless we can display the same vision of that earlier period - we will lose the treasure of California's open space and environmental beauty.
One of the reasons I come to California is that the Republican party seems to have given up on California, and my message to those in California is that we're going to compete nationally as a party, and that includes California.
California has something which not every place in the world has: It has what I would call a sunny side, and I don't mean just physically, but the sunny side is a future. California's worth saving, to put it bluntly.
Clearly, high energy prices will have a large negative effect on the California economy and could possibly drag the rest of the nation into a recession.
To say that people would cease to come to California if they would have to pay more taxes is to underestimate the advantages of being in California - mightily.
