Schwarzenegger Goes to the People on Budget Plan

Hosted by
Just weeks after his own election, Arnold Schwarzenegger is barnstorming again, this time on behalf of a massive deficit-bond and a spending cap. Today, it-s Bakersfield, tomorrow it-s Tracy, and yesterday it was San Diego as the Governor tries to get public support to convince Democratic Legislators to put his plan on the March ballot--with a deadline day after tomorrow. We speak with a journalist in San Diego, Republican and Democratic strategists, and the state superintendent of Public Instruction about how the campaign is going and the political risks Schwarzenegger's taking in this first test of his governorship.
