For those of you who follow the "View from the Street," take heart. We're still blogging away during this busy Election Year.  In addition to the posts in this space, we've been invited to appear on Fox & Hounds Daily - the online site for Politics and Business in California. We'll be posting there - along with our one-of-a-kind posts here  - daily during Election Season.

In the meantime, check out the latest piece about California's ridiculous new rule that members of the State Assembly can no longer text while in the Legislature.  Let us know what you think, does a rule like this make a bit of difference to the Special Interest influence-peddling in State Capitols across the Nation?

Tomorrow, we'll be back to our snarky, regular programming.  See you then!
