Your point comes from a political position. Try making a point without a hit piece against Republicans. It is no more valid than a hit piece against Democrats.
First of all, the data from CA and MN are accurate and verifiable.
The FACT that the GOP, and its 'comrades', universally revile the policies enacted by the two governors, that they PREDICTED the exact opposite of what has happened in those two States, implicitly, and correctly condemns those in the GOP who made the 'bad calls'.
The CA article said that "the Republicans were full of crap"...for their 'predictions'. So throw that out if you like. It doesn't change the fact that nobody on the GOP side accurately predicted the results of Gov. Brown's policies.
The MN piece left out the anti-GOP rhetoric and simply pointed out the core economic beliefs of the modern GOP are 'bunk'.

At some point people arguing for polices that haven't worked need to be called on that, and properly asked why those same polices will work in the future.
You stating my 'point' comes from a 'political position' doesn't mean that the facts don't support that position.
And your arguments are hardly apolitical. I don't waste my time dismissing arguments for their politics rather than for their lack of facts and evidence.
False equivalence is crap.
