I think George Will is basically correct here. I don't think Arnold can deliver the goods. People don't rationally connect taxes and spending. I think the conservatives and Republicans would have been better off politically to let Davis twist at the end of his rope and the Democratic legislature flounder until the next election turned them out of office.
If Arnold can reduce taxes, he must cut spending deeply and the "You owe me' crowd will scream that their loss of government largesse is all Arnold's fault. The Democratic Legislature will not easily oblige.
