So Davis says anyone running for governor should at least be able to pronounce 'California', in reference to Arnie's Austrian accent. He didn't even apologize for this officially, just passed it off as "I was joking." But beneath the "joke" is nothing short of racist remark. I'm in awe that the media didn't make a bigger fuss of all this. A good chunk of California's population is not US-born and have accents and are eligible to vote. I didn't think much of Davis before. Just seemed to be a lazy, complacent old man lacking severely in the personality department. Not a stellar governor by any means, but then again, perhaps not worth the efforts required to launch an overthrow. But after that remark, I can't wait to see him go down for the count.
