Even in California...

Even in California ... it's possible for a liberal to get mugged by reality.  Just ask the Mayor of San Jose – though I should note that the political betting is that he's going to lose his fight, and the unions will win.  That would guarantee the end of San Jose as a fiscally viable city, and hasten it along the path to bankruptcy.  But since when did any pesky reality like that ever divert a greedy, tax-swilling union from running headlong at an epic fail?
