How much of the conservative cave on Biden's "child check" welfare is driven by support for religious schools (& opposition to abortion)? Suspect a lot. PS. That's fine, Keep the checks for working families. Just not the ones to non-working families. Most are in former category. https://t.co/AWY9DSN1wy

Alternatively: The recall is the only way a moderate Republican/centrist can get elected. Otherwise won't make it through primaries of either party. Was Schwarzenegger a disaster? (A: No. Made some valuable reforms) https://t.co/CpSF5BLiYH
