Recall Feinstein and Boxer
Feinstein made a speech yesterday saying >93% of the constituents calling her office were against the bailout, but she voted for it anyway. Sounds like reason enough to warrant a recall! Anybody else in California on board with this? Anybody with the talent to get something like this started?
it doesn't require talent
it requires your time. I've done a few referendum petitions which resulted in two issues on the ballot, and it's pretty easy to find the information you just have to do it! You just have to care enough to make a difference. If everyone waited for the "talent" nothing would ever get done. Call your board of elections and ask them what the process is.
