Palin’s defacto positions are pro-amnesty, pro-campaign finance reform, and pro-global warming by her enthusiastic support for the likes of McCain, Fiorina, and their ilk. She (and Obama) will appreciate your support.
He needs an energetic base, not an angry one. He has got to get his name out there if he wants a chance? I personally dont even know who he is. Maybe herd his name once...Fiorina already has name recognition. Unfortunately in an election that’s half the battle. The other is your message...dont know his....I know boxers well and Fiorina...I would choose Fiorina anyday over boxer?
Chuck DeVore? Who are you? (playing devils advocate here)
” The Conservative political landscape IS in ruins. It’s so bad that a Tea Party had to erupt from nowhere, because nobody but nobody was representing Conservative ideals.
Why did that happen if RINOs in positions of authority was good for Conservatism?”
HALLELUJAH!
Thanks - that’s the recipe. :)
Does Chuck DeVore stand a chance of beating the Democrats? When picking a candidate, you must deal in the real world, not in wishful thinking. Perhaps that's what Palin is doing here.
Don't even get me started on what her endorsement of Rand Paul represents.
And evidently Josh, you think that nothing has taken place over the last year to cause folks to think about what is taking place. Is that your learned opinion?
I’m saying that if we put up a Conservative candidate for national office, fund him and give him our full support, he will win.
If he gets the nomination and the Republican party leadership pulls the same general election disappearing act it’s pulled for the last twenty years, probably not.
During general elections in California, the Left pulls out all the stops. They pour tens of millions of dollars into them. They bring all the big names out to California and make numerous big campaign swing through the state. The Republican party doesn’t lift a finger to provide funds for Conservatives. Last time around, Bush flew into the state for a few hours once, perhaps twice.
Pete Simon ran his last campaign in California on just a few million dollars. And hardly anyone came to California to help him. A few names did show up once or twice, but their status compared to the people the Democrats brought out was embarrassing. Davis had over ten million dollars to run his campaign. And you know what, Simon made a very respectable showing on 20% of the budget the left came up with.
The Democrats think California is worth fighting for. They pull out all the stops every election. Our side doesn’t.
Then I get people from back East explaining to me that Conservatives can’t win in California and that the citizens of California are devout leftists.
This is tantamount to seeing us send in 20,000 U.S. troops against 100,000, denying them air support, failing to provide them ammunition, and watching the other side loft an incredible propaganda campaign unchallenged, then saying our troops are just inferior.
OK IT WAS FUN...GOT TO GO BECK IS UP TO BAT!!!
Same argument, different election. Sorry, I'm tired of wearing the clothespin on my nose every time I vote. I think she should have endorsed DeVore -- it would have given him a boost and a fighting chance to win.
That makes you an expert right?
Tell me, which district in California have you been involved in during one of those elections?
Tell me what the dynamics were. I’d like to hear your personal story.
And with you acting the part of one, it’s impossible to take you serious. Thanks for playing.
Don Pardo, please give this nitwit his parting gifts...
AuntB, with cohorts like this...
I’ll agree that McClintock had a better shot than most people gave him credit for. However, the election of Davis was the cause of the problem. If Riordan (RINO, but did a good job as Mayor of LA) had been the nominee instead of the unelectable Bill Simon, the whole fiasco could’ve been avoided. Davis knew that Riordan would’ve probably beaten him and that’s why Davis had the base defeat Riordan in the primary.
I need not “tell you” a damned thing, you simply need to look at your state legislature. Those quasi-commies were voted into those offices by someone.
Oh, btw, in my own state I have and will cointinue to work for conservatives for local and state offices. It doesn’t make my state legistlature any more conservative but I do what I can.
That one’s gonna leave a mark.
I do agree that Fiorina is the most likely to defeat Boxer, while certainly not the most Conservative candidate. You must remember, this is California, the same State that elects loony, wacko left wing Mayors. Anyway you cut it, the Republican nominee will have to SOME support from this same loony voting block.
Mixed feelings here.
lol
It was enlightening and I think we can agree we are in a mess...all the best. I love our constitution and pray for this country. When kids can’t have a bible in school it’s pretty scarey.
Well i guess I had he pegged too, I drank the koolaid for a few days, then started feeling something was amiss,
In the video you posted, Carly was speaking in favor of John McCain. John favored cap and trade. Therefore, she spoke in favor of it. Her stated position on cap and trade is as follows:
"Barbara Boxer's cap-and-trade legislation and the EPA's regulatory steps will lead to more job losses and onerous regulation . . . . The job-killing bill Boxer is trying to force through the Senate ignores the negative economic impacts it will have on hardworking Americans." She goes on to call for a full review of the science behind climate change legislation.
