Chicago is home to Marxist philosophy and politics while Hollywood is home to the Kremlin bank.
Not really.
Because CA is so solidly blue these days, it is not often contested in presidential elections.
The politicians (on both sides) come here mainly for the money.
In the last presidential election, when I wen to volunteer in our local GOP HQ, they had me telephoning voters out of state. That’s how pathetic and depressing politics is here in the one-party People’s Republic of CA.
Democrat candidates love the rich, and flock to the homes of the rich and fall on their knees begging for rich dollars and support. They are like prostitutes coming to see their “Johns”
Embrace the suck Mr. Rall.
Hey, California, if you want the politicians’ attention then divide your electoral votes proportionally by popular vote. (chaaching! 20 electoral votes the Republicans would never have a chance at now)
Dems pretending to care for the poor has been a vote buying scam for decades.
It is precisely liberal policies that have ensured the poor remain dependent upon the government, so as to retain their votes.
The pencil pushers in those gov’t offices are rewarded for expanding their payrolls and number of dependents, not for improving peoples lives.
All the more reason to dump the EC. The GOP will NEVER win the WH again as long as the EC exists.
Ted Rall? Shouldn’t he get an automatic BARF ALERT?
The last solid Republican win was in 1988. Bush beat Gore because of some confused voters in Florida and in 2004 one swing state, Ohio.
That’s 28 years ago since a solid win, a generation.
“The Simpson-Mazzoli Act turned California into Mexifornia. “
Worth repeating. And every President since has made the situation worse, Dubya and Obama vying for the top spot.
Want to be relevant, CA? Stop funding and voting for only one party. Otherwise, hand over the cash to your chosen owners and shut up.
California is only good for a political cash cow. Unless you’re going there to support the rare competitive conservative, just get in, raise bushels of $$$$, and get out. Don’t bother campaigning there.. it’s democrat caliphate territory.
I’ll bet Rall is a frequent guest.
