Elder probably couldn’t win that state either. It would be very hard in modern day California for a real conservative to win a senate seat. Only a RINO like that pansy ex-body builder has much of a shot on a state level today. This ain’t the California of 40 years ago.
lib republican cant beat boxer? i thought she was damaged goods
I think that before we make any progress we might have to march to the Republican headquarters first...
Nice strategy, running to lose. If you expect to lose, you will most likely do so... and you will lose in those areas where you thought you could win.
“Republican” voters need to teach elected Republican’s a lesson.
The lesser of two evils and a republican that can “win” is no longer an option.
DO NOT vote for a RINO. I for one, will never again.
I am on record now. If Romney is our candidate in 2012. I will vote third party. I would much rather work to destroy BO for 4 more years than be responsible for the further deterioration of the Republican Party.
Being in high tech, I don’t like Carly, period. She ruined a once was a good company - HP. I also like to see Boxer go as well. Elder needs to be supported.
>> Senator Cornyn and the NRSC told him not to.
As a conservative from Texas, Cornyn is a huge disappointment to me.
Nowhere is this more evident than in his role as NRSC chair.
Cornyn would champion and fund Hugo Chavez if he had an (R) by his name (and was a rich guy or gal who would play well in the Senate backroom club sandbox).
Real conservative like Larry Elder, with good ideas and name recognition, grassroots support, but no deep pockets? Fuhgettaboudit.
The NRCC stripped my conservative congressman of money weeks before the last election. They claimed he was a lost cause and handed the seat to a marxist.
The lost cause, lost by a whopping 2%.
Apparently toeing the party line on the big bank bailout was more important than holding the seat. If the GOP tries to run a RINO this time around they may as well hand the seat to the democrats again.
I lived in Southern California for 25 years and left the state two years ago. I listened to Larry many, many times. I think Larry would make a good Senator. Too bad California wants to stay screwed up.
This is precisely why I told the NRSC to take a hike when they called me for money last night.
That is the fallacious argument. If the candidate is a loser, then the resources tied up won't be nearly as much if the candidate is someone who can give Boxer a run for her money. The more attractive the candidate, the more resources used by the Dems, win or lose. With the state California is in fiscally, a clear policy contrast should resonate with the electorate and make for a more strongly contested race.
