Hey, what could possibly go wrong, Joe? Turn-out?
The CA GoP is a stagnant pile of warmed over Dem.
Turn-out will likely be even lower if they run a bunch of RINOs and moderates.
Kalifornians keep making the same STUPID choices every election, low turnout or not, they will continue to make the same mistakes.
Make it a very pure experiment. The GOP should just leave the state, a la the Israelis and Gaza. We can check back on the Californians in 10 years.
Disapproval of Obama rises in state, (Field) poll shows

While a bare majority of voters in solidly blue California still approve of President Obama’s job performance, dissatisfaction with his leadership on key issues has increased significantly - especially among those who were once solidly part of his base, according to a Field Poll released Tuesday.
And in a finding that could affect Obama’s fellow Democrats as they head into the 2014 elections, the poll shows that just one-third of California voters surveyed say the country is moving in the right direction, while 55 percent believe it is “seriously off on the wrong track.” That’s a significant decline from February, when 48 percent said the country was on the right track and 44 percent said it was on the wrong track.
The 51 percent of respondents who approve of Obama’s performance represents an 11-point slide in the Field Poll since the start of his second term. His disapproval rating stands at 43 percent.
Among those souring on the president are groups that have been among his strongest supporters, the poll showed - Latinos (a 16-point jump in disapproval), union households (18 points) and women (13 points).
Even among Democrats overall, Obama’s negative rating is 18 percent, double the total in July.
Mark DiCamillo, director of the Field Poll, said the downward trend is cause for concern for the Democratic Party as it looks toward the 2014 midterm elections.
Do we have any candidates for California assembly and other reps running?
We bested them in Bakersfield for a runoff in June and eecked one out.
Republicans need to mount a full court press on the CA Democratic Machine (that includes everywhere), they also need to use whatever legislative maneuvers to block/reverse liberal legislation.
Rove killed the GOP in California by foisting a new party chairman and Arnold Terminator on them.
And I’m sure he’ll step in and do it again, if necessary.
“Without.....a big name Republican challenger lined up yet” the Democrats won’t vote? They turn out to vote because they want to vote against Republicans, but not to vote for Democrats? Wow. That’s how 10 year olds vote.
Democrats will do voter fraud in close races... real turn out doesn’t matter to democrats - names on the rolls matter. My guess is the FBI will be watching...
