Tall and a bit brawny, Steele took the dais, dressed in a gray suit and a pink tie. "They told me this was Barack Country," he told the overwhelmingly white crowd of roughly 700 (there was a handful of blacks and South Asians), inciting a mixture of applause and boos.

...billion by imposing a variety of temporary taxes - hiking the sales tax by a penny, adding 12 cents to the gasoline tax and raising the car-license fee (something Schwarzenegger had campaigned against in 2003). Cuts include $8.6 billion from K-12 classrooms, which probably would force schools to pink-slip teachers and increase classroom sizes; a 10% cut to the university system; a continuation of the two-days-a-month furlough of state workers that recently closed state offices, including the Department of Motor Vehicles; and several billion in cuts to social welfare and programs for the elderly, sick...
