The New PoliSci?

(California's new fiscal year began on July 1, 2008, and we still do not have a budget. This is the longest impasse on record.)

I was never a student of political science, but there's no escaping politics either. And no escaping illogic, judged by this tidbit I found in the Sacramento Bee today:

The governor said the most important contribution he is making right now to solve the budget impasse is that he is staying in Sacramento. "Our office stays in town. I am staying in town. I said I will not leave town and I will not leave this state until there is a budget," Schwarznegger said. He said it in Burbank.

Maybe it's not the new PoliSci, but rather the same old PoliTalk.
