If there are 25% undecideds, Campbell is 20 points in front of Devore, and Devore has no money for these last couple of weeks, and his campaign doesn’t seem to be a very dynamic campaign anyway, then how does he beat Campbell, even Fiorina beating Campbell looks doubtful at this point, although she has money to spend.

As a social conservative, I don’t want to lose to a candidate that ran on an anti-social conservative platform, and won with it.

This race is wrapping up and everyone seems fine with the status quo, and indifferent to Campbell continuing on his path, of defeating an apathetic, fatally split, opposition.

Have you looked for any anti-Campbell threads here at FR? The guy is golden here, in the sense that he is invisible to conservatives. His campaign runs along unobstructed, that is how he can openly run on an announced anti-social conservative platform while not getting into any trouble over it, he is in a safe bubble while his top challenger and Palin’s endorsement of her are savaged night and day.

So how does he achieve that? Is he being babied along to his eventual destruction by the Enemedia, like McCain?

I don't think so, he believes that being pro abortion, pro gay marriage, pro homosexual adoption, anti gun, will help him beat Boxer. Like I said, he is running on this platform, that means he will be an anti-social conservative ball of fire during his first six years in the Senate, confident of his path.

“Campbell supports abortion rights and gay marriage, and argues that Boxer’s greatest asset against either of his two Republican opponents, former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina and state Assemblyman Chuck DeVore, would be the state’s decidedly un-conservative social views.

“She has always been able to move the debate over to the social issues. She will not be able to do that against me,” Campbell told POLITICO.”

“Like anyone cares.”

EXACTLY - I just don’t see this endorsement helping to get him a lot of votes. It’s hard to find ANYONE who has any respect for her - even her dog would probably split the scene, expect for the free food.

Sorry, but there is no way I could forgive her for what she did to Hewlett-Packard. I’m glad the choice isn’t mine. Not that we have any better choices here in Texas.

You have to bend the trend in an achievable way.

Like this?

(from other thread)
The “citizens” group which sent the letters demanding Republican candidate for Senate Chuck DeVore be investigated for a possible crime has ties to the Carly Fiorina Republican Senate campaign, and to the California Republican Party. It could be that this interconnection of the three may itself be improper or illegal under election laws. At the very least, this is a bullying tactic that California voters deserve to know about before they vote in this primary.

I will vote for Fiorina today to have the possibility of voting for someone with DeVore's perspective 6 years from now, and I hope it would in fact be DeVore.

Well, you won't, will you, if the California GOP topsiders insist on sending conservatives to prison in order to get them out of California politics?

This is the kind of crap the Klintonx are famous for. Remember Roy Hale? The White House Travel Office and poor Billy Dale? Jim and Susan McDougal of Madison Guaranty?

If you're not willing to vote for conservatives in the primary ....... then just when did you think you're supposed to get a chance to have a say about anything?

I am going to vote for a conservative Put another way, how many of Fiorina's votes are people who listen to RiNO lies and believe them?

Hopefully a lot because this is a liberal state and many people will have to be convinced that she is a moderate to win.
