Comparing Apples to Invisible Oranges

While California Democrats get together this weekend they have a right to be encouraged (page 1) about the declining poll numbers for Governor Schwarzenegger. Although the numbers aren't good for box office, it would be interesting to compare them with those in the field of possible contenders--Steve Westly, Phil Angelitis or Bill Lockyear, or even the combined numbers of all three. Until voters get around to focusing on the policies of any replacement the polls mean little. You can't beat something with nothing.
