True to form.

[Osage Orange]

Yeah, I love it when people vote against their country’s best interests out of spite for a personal snub. Sign of character.

2nd that!!

[tubebender]

I sense there are FReepers up thread who may be surprised by this nut case. Didn't he have his hat in the ring for a run at the governor's seat and we said no way Josey?

[SierraWasp]

He’s always been in the clutches of a permanent and terminal brainfart that has him cognitively impaired without hope. He thinks he can find hope with the dope!!!

[calcowgirl]

California is not ripe territory for conservatives right now, and hasn’t been for some time.

I totally disagree. It is ripe for common sense. Between Arnold and McClintock, they were both running on a common-sense, fiscal conservative platform (one of them was lying, of course.) Together, they took over 60% of the vote. The problem is the CA GOP leadership pushes no other message than we must be a "purple party." All of these white-flag trojan horses need to be purged before any progress can be made. The will is not absent in the electorate--it is absent in the leaders (who favor--and benefit from--big government solutions)

Two more decades of the kind of crap the Marxist rodent left and their RINO stooges are pushing, and California will be like Bangladesh.

[SierraWasp]

Superb summation! Quite accurate!! Prescient, too!!!

Riordan was also the first self-admitted RINO. He knew what he was doing, so he was an even worse party-killer than Arnold.

[CounterCounterCulture]

moving to the Obama camp is a sign of severe mental retardation.

Riordan crossed that bridge to mental retardation eons ago. No suprise here. And to think some put their hopes in this disturbed assclown to be California's governor in 2002.

The so-called Obama-cans are really liberal Republicans like Riordan, Leach, Chafee, and Tim Kaine’s father-in-law. I consider myself as a moderate, but I would never vote for a Marxist like Hussein. Any so-called Republican who votes for Obama needs to get his/her head examined.

[CounterCounterCulture]

No suprise here >>> No surprise here

[fieldmarshaldj]

Fortunately, Tricky Dick was never Governor, so as Mayor, his sabotage was confined to Los Angeles.

[Wilder Effect]

How convenient. Clinton Supporter Rothchild comes out for McCain, so Obama finds RINO Riordan from a non swing state to help.

Who Cares.

[fieldmarshaldj]

One minor correction, “Missing Linc” Chafee officially left the GOP last year. He is an “unenrolled” voter in RI. Just one of them “Independent Stalinists.” Good riddance.

[darkangel82]

And that’s a good thing. People like him cured me of my own RINOish-ness, an even better thing.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Obama’s got a lock on the dementia voters with Tricky Dick Riordan and the illegal drug-addled, STD-riddled, overpaid starlet voters with Lindsay “Firecrotch” Lohan.

[cherry]

a positive for McCain that hapless losers like Riordan support the terrorist and not him.....

Riordan as anyone remembers was nothing more than a Bloomberg on the left coast....

[Lancey Howard]

LOL, surprise, surprise...

[calcowgirl]

Clinton Supporter Rothchild comes out for McCain

Forester de Rothschild is a Republican-hating liberal. She was the major financial backer of WJC's third-way movement.

Don't think having her on the McCain team is a good sign.

[SierraWasp]

I’m being reminded why they call it “The Silly Season!” Now there’s even a thread about McCain being more like Reagan than Bush!! Where is the Free Republic I remember???
