California is rightly regarded as one of the bluest — that is, most Democratic — and most liberal states in the nation. But California's political complexion is increasingly so distinctive that it should demand an entirely new coloration.

Brown. And no, not because of Mexicans. Not because of dead grass either.

I like this, dem states=brown states.

Dem slogan, What can Brown do for you?

In some surveys as much as 1/3 of Republicans claim they would never vote for Trump.

What was once Reagan Country is now...I don’t know what to call it.

“What can (Jerry) Brown do for you?”

Jerry isn’t the brown I’m talking about either, think Mr. Hanky.

You’re right. The way he was campaigning, it was a total waste.

He sure wasn’t hawking Conservatism.

Compare what he was doing then to what Trump or Cruz are doing now.

You can’t sell a product if you don’t sell people on it’s advantages. Conservatism is no different.

Ohio and Florida again.

Trump may be the one candidate who would call out the Republican SoSs about the voter fraud in those states.

He also needs to call out Soros and the DNC on their "SOS" project. They've invested millions in state Secretary of State races in order to get Democrats elected to that post, even in heavily Republican states. The sole objective is to get control of the election process and be able to stymie any attempt to investigate and prosecute vote fraud.

“Sad. CA used to be the place to go.”

It was paradise when I moved there in 1976. I left in 2006, never to return. Destroyed for all but the very rich.

I know the left hated him, so he couldn’t have been all bad.

ZI was just starting my career in 76, so I had no time for this stuff.

I will add that Los Angeles was “Reagan Country” in 1976. Shows you how far it fell.
