Apparently, sex sells in politics:

LATimes: Police arrested two members of an organization called Breasts Not Bombs after they removed their tops during a protest on the steps of the state Capitol on Monday afternoon.

The women, who were protesting Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's ballot measures for today's special election, took off their shirts…

So that’s why all the ballot measures failed.

Well, maybe these ladies’ breasts weren’t the ultimate reason for the failures…though if we saw that on the way to the ballot box, we’d probably be inspired to vote no on whatever they want as long as they put their shirts back on.

In all seriousness, Prop 76 failing is not such a blow to the tax and expenditure limit movement since it was such a weak, non-constitutional limit that wouldn’t do much to tie the hands of greedy politicians.  Needless to say, it was no Proposition 1.

In the wake of this special election, Californians should begin the fight for a real spending cap - a Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights.  This is the only way to get the Golden state back on track…and hopefully, the best way to keep the shirts on the ladies.
