Governor faces threat in GOP
Dump Democratic aide or lose support, conservatives say.

California Republican leaders are struggling behind the scenes to quell an insurrection by angry conservatives who want to strip Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger of the state party endorsement if he doesn't drop his Democratic chief of staff, Susan Kennedy.
The conservative California Republican Assembly's demand for a vote on its "Susan Kennedy Resolution" has tossed a firebomb into efforts to shape the party's agenda at its Feb. 24-26 winter convention in San Jose.

Two leading conservative activists, former state Republican Party Chairman Michael Schroeder and California Republican Assembly President Mike Spence, indicated in interviews that they would back away from the Kennedy resolution if party leaders allow convention votes on four other measures critical of Schwarzenegger's legislative agenda.

The other resolutions oppose Schwarzenegger's proposal to raise the minimum wage, take issue with the governor for appointing too many Democratic judges, call for a balanced budget, and protest taking on additional bond debt to fund Schwarzenegger's $222 billion infrastructure building program.
