Ronald Reagan...he was so good, no-one could come close, so the Californians just gave up.
I wish it were true that there is a large untapped conservative electorate in California just waiting for a group of conservative purists to come in and clean out the whole state but alas...it’s a lost cause.
There is! It’s just that the poor of Mexico is even larger.
Hey..IT’s ALL MY FAULT...I am a native that moved to Georgia in 1974...thus leaving a vacuum that the out of staters moved into.
The California GOP has always been rino/libertarian, and most of the California republican voters have been the same.
While California was much republican, it was never conservative, unlike Texas which has a huge Evangelical, truly social conservative, and truly conservative voting population, California never did.
The California GOP’s libertarianism, and the democrat,s liberalism kept increasing the democrat voter base until it overwhelmed the right leaning voters.
Texas on the other hand, fights, and they fight to keep the state conservative, and liberalism and libertarianism is strongly challenged at all levels, whether in education, or in court decisions. God is still alive in Texas.
Well, 3 of the first four kids are. That one daughter was probably sired by OJ Simpson.
As a kid I remember nothing but cars with out of state license plates towing U-Haul trailers flooding into California, so many that it was like watching a conga line.
The cars were all battered rattletrap crapbox cars, often station wagons full of kids with trash and debris up past the back windows driven by dirtbag parents seeking employment. Out of state pioneers arrived in the Golden State of California to make a home and a new life for themselves, escaping from whatever state they were fleeing.
Over time, the populace went from basically a rock-ribbed Republican carbon copy of 'The Brady Bunch' changing into losers and shitheels and trashy parolees and their dirthead families, along with the steady influx of illegal aliens from Central America. Liberals jumped up to help every one of them find a teat to suck benefits from. They institutionalized dirt-baggedness and bought it with the public treasury.
What you see now in Southern California is about generation three of the losers and lame-brains and mouth breathing retards that presently make up the citizenry of Southern California. Last in everything, yet first in lastness. How else do you think that Democrat politicians with direct ties to organized crime can operate with impunity?
No Republican party can survive that sort of fundamental change.
IMMIGRATION, IMMIGRATION, IMMIGRATION, IMMIGRATION!!!!
Maybe HOLLYWIERD!!!!
You may not like the answer, but here it is. The Republican party started it’s slide to oblivion when the President broke his word on getting rid of the dept of education, it then grew when he cut a deal with the Russians over education.
Now before you throw stones at me, I did not dream this up, I heard it directly from a woman who was in his dept of education. She was sure when hired that she was there to dismantle it, but it only grew. Her name is Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt she is renowned nation wide for her fight against Common Core and Charter Schools. She is an old lady, around 90 I think, but she answers her own phone and will talk your ear off. http://deliberatedumbingdown.com/pages/author.htm
Texas and California have the same percentage of Hispanics.
Texas republicans are clearly different from California republicans and they are fighting battles at levels and in depth, in ways that the more libertarian/moderate republicans of California, not only wouldn’t fight, but even agreed with the left on, or were indifferent to.
I think that when President Reagan “choose” George HW Bush as his Veep, he “opened” himself up for nothing but compromise.
Which one? Ole Kris was/in NOTHING but an ALLEY CAT Tramp!
> His movies are shot through with propaganda.
I think you could probably say that to some extent on just about every movie depending on what your definition of propaganda is and the color glasses you are viewing them through as it relates to your own view point.
From an Environmental Friendly website. This partially address your correct observation about California vs. Texas Latinos:
"Asian Americans are one of the fastest-growing ethnic groups in California. By 2025, Asian Americans are projected to be 18% of California’s population and make up more than 12% of California’s registered voters. They are also an untapped and largely ignored constituency, one with strong environmental values that can provide significant voter support needed to advance environmental reforms and protections."
bfl
California and Texas only have about a 5% difference in their non-Hispanic white population.
California was lost because of the libertarianism and liberalism of it’s people and it’s GOP, something that they prided themselves on when they were so cool, that they mocked states like Texas as bible thumpers and hicks, and Jesus freaks and straight laced rubes.
Some GOP purity voters who don’t recognize that CA is a left-leaning state, but will accept a Pete Wilson. Davis ran ads that cost Richard Riordan the GOP nomination because Davis knew that Riordan would’ve beaten him. If Riordan had been nominated, he probably would’ve won and the state, while not turning Red, might have been in play at the state level.

“as it relates to your own view point.”
Hold on, there. Are you saying that liberalism is as correct as are conservatism? It’s all relative? Just depends on “your own view point?”
