Well, now, doesn't this; http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/u... sound all too familiar - a Republican Governor wins the office based largely upon his promise to eliminate the car tax, does so to a great extent, and then discovers that his state is in dire financial straits just a few years later...

How fortunate is California to have Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger so closely tracking the political career of the infamous former Virginia Governor Jim "No Car Tax" Gilmore in his rise to prominence.  Hopefully, Schwarzenegger will enjoy the same political fate as Gilmore in the end.

And here's the real kicker...  
...when you view the video at the link provided above, you'll note that it is a group of California Republican lawmakers who are now actively considering TRIPLING California's car tax in order to balance their state's budget this year.

Congratulations, Jim and Arnold; you've certainly gone out of your way to earn all that's coming to you.

Thanks so much, guys!

Steve
