Schroeder, one of California's most effectiveRepublican Party operatives, has been telling me for months that he's finally tiring of politics and is eager for a new challenge--something more enjoyable. What's been catching Schroeder's interest? Go ahead and guess.No. Killing liberals and moderates is illegal and, besides, he's been doing that figuratively in elections anyway.No. He's already polluting the environment daily by driving his massive black Hummer.Nein.
