Try Solving Something

Re “Democrats Shore Up Strategies,” Feb. 2: So the Democratic legislators munch on pizza, play computer games and listen to music in Newport Beach as they “prepare to confront” the governor. How surprising. Taxpayers are so tired of confrontation politics. Don’t these people understand that the voters pay them to actually solve problems, not whine. Perhaps the Legislature needs to be reminded about the fate of former Gov. Gray Davis. Would it be too much to ask that members spend some of their time between exchanging gift bags to figure out how to compromise and actually get something done?
