Why was Richard Riordan annointed by President Bush and Karl Rove, and whatever happened to Bill Jones, anyway?

Some do and some don't. Just because HCI is successfully shopping statist judges doesn't mean that they are following the Constitution.
Simon came up on Riordan because Gray Davis spent millions in advertising to influence conservatives in the Republican primary.
Hokum. Riordan was toast by the time he got to the convention. You had to be there to see it. It was a rout.
The recall election is not a Republican primary.
Neither is there a need for an absolute majority. Republicans could EASILY have won this with a single candidate. When conservatives pushed through the recall over the objections of the Rove/Parsky/Firestone/Huffington CAGOP hierarchy they highjacked the effort by putting up their rich RINO pretty boy and then tell the people who did the work not to split the vote. Thugs, as usual. Had Republicans pulled together (as they keep telling us we should) Simon would already be governor. It was the CAGOP who threw the election.
That's why there are not Republicans in statewide office right now.
No, it's because Parsky wouldn't cut loose with cash unless Russo forced the Log Cabin letter. It's because Parsky wouldn't spend a nickel on registration or GOTV. It's because Parsky demanded control of Simon's ad campaign or he wouldn't cut loose with the funds Rove put under his control. McClintock would be controller but for Parsky's piquish personal vendetta. You RINOs screwed up the whole election. GOP turnout reflected it. Wanna know why? Read this.
I think you need to poke your head out of the bubble you're living in.
Get your facts straight and stop buying the Party spin. I'm a lot more intimately involved in this stuff than you realize. .
