First, we had a historically large (but still small) number of batsh%$ insane district attorneys turfed out of office, because they are sick and tired of abuse of prosecutorial power.  (In Houston, the DA jailed a mentally ill rape victim, and they were given the boot, for example)

Also, in conservative San Diego, voters rejected another huge give away to a pro sports franchise for a gold plated stadium complex.

I hope that both of these are the beginnings of a trend.

It’s a little thing, but it is a good thing.
