I am absolutely getting a woody over this:

EVEN PARTISANS who oppose the effort to recall Gov. Gray Davis are fascinated at the possibilities: With no primary, a cheaper price tag on campaigns and the likelihood that (if the governor were recalled) a candidate could win with as little as 20 percent of the vote, a recall would turn California into a political petri dish.

"It's going to be great theater," noted David Gilliard, the GOP political consultant running Rescue California, the latest addition to the recall movement and largely funded by Rep. Darrell Issa.

For what it's worth, conventional wisdom says that if Republicans can raise up to $2 million, they'll get the 897,158 signatures needed to qualify for the ballot -- and once recall is on the ballot, voters will give Davis the boot.

The latest Field poll found that two-thirds of state voters don't like the governor. And the mechanics work against him: On the very day voters go to the polls to vote up or down on Davis, they also vote on his possible replacement. By law, Davis can't run to replace himself.

This is gonna be excellent. I thought after the first few recall articles this issue would die. It seems to be increasing. Beautiful.
