Panic in California

California Democrats are in full panic mode:

Democrats plan to attack Schwarzenegger with a flurry of mailers, phone calls and TV ads calling into question everything from his voting record to his association with former Gov. Pete Wilson. The move comes after several weekend tracking polls showed the actor-turned-politician taking a commanding lead over his chief rival, Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante, the only major Democrat running as a replacement candidate.

Meanwhile, the polls indicate a clear margin of voters still favor dumping Gov. Gray Davis, the Democratic incumbent. The recall leads by between 6 and 14 percentage points, according to five different private surveys conducted separately for candidates or special interests.
