He rolled back the car tax, and then pushed four initiatives to weaken the power of public employee unions.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be extremists.<BR/><BR/>To someone outside the system, it doesn't matter which candidate wins. To admit that it does would be to admit that their self-exile into wacko land is pointless. So, they always say that elections don't matter, the system is corrupt (otherwise their views would prevail) etc.<BR/><BR/>The very few that can still see reality admit that their ideas are just unpopular. For some reason, that's hard to do.
