Don't Do It, Arnold

The L.A. Times reports Governor Schwarzenegger may be considering a tax hike for additional school funding.

Such a move would certainly undo the uneasy truce between the Governor and GOP leaders in the wake of the Governor's hiring of a left-wing, liberal activist as his Chief of Staff.

Conservatives have had several disagreements with the Governor, but tax policy has generally been an area of agreement. If the Governor decides in favor of a tax hike, further alienating the Republican base, all bets are off for his re-election.
