Now That The Recall Is History

Democrats are moving fast to screw one of the powerful public employee unions that Grey Davis tried to buy off with taxpayer money just before last year's recall election.

A majority of Democrats in the state Senate said Tuesday they plan to try to force correctional officers to renegotiate a lucrative contract secured in a controversial deal with former Democratic Gov. Gray Davis.
Seventeen of the state's 25 Democratic senators signed a written pact that they will not vote to finance an 11 percent pay raise the correctional officers are set to receive in July. Correctional officers' pay is projected to increase 37 percent by the end of the five-year contract.


In fact, undoing Grey Davis has become such a popular pastime in California, that even Democrats are starting to play.
