Just a reminder - I am not single-handedly responsible for the state of California’s politics. The mocking and unending snide references to the pathetic politics here, although correct, are hardly visionary. It would be encouraging and even perhaps uplifting to be within a conservative community that knew there was work to be done and encouraged those of us who are doing it, rather than to have to duck incoming day after day.
Don’t go gettin’ all defensive. You might want to check my profile...You will notice that I am a fellow Californian.
The fact is that we just recycled a failed socialist for governor, sent another one back to the senate for, what, the fourth time(?) and elevated a pack of others to state office.
My remark/question stands; How would letting the socialists in Sacramento select our senators change anything?
In fact, we probably stand a better chance of retaking the state capitol, or at least having a significant influence there, than we do of ever popularly electing a conservative senator.
