Will Arianna Battle Arnold in California?

The New York Times opines there is Chaos in California due to the upcoming recall vote on Governor Gray Davis. The Times thinks California's recall methods need to be redesigned. First, it only takes 12% of the voters to cause a recall. In most other states, it's 25%. Next, it's possible for someone without much experience or even broad support to win the prize after a recall.

Salon asks whether it will be Arianna vs. the Terminator.

Kevin Thurman of Raise Your Hands has examined the situation in detail, here and here.

Digby has a very thoughtful piece opposing the recall here.
