I’m not a Californian (thank god!) but my question to DeVore is....”If you are so good, why such a small amount of support?”
“my question to DeVore is....If you are so good, why such a small amount of support?
Because California Rs are RINOs, and those that aren’t are the cowardly type who would pick the “lesser of two evils” and would vote for a Romney or a McCain if they were ahead of a real conservative in the polls. You can’t rebuild a conservative base in California if all people do is focus on the short term.
Palin should have endorsed DeVore, and even if he lost to Babs, conservatives would be better positioned for the future because he would have had a platform to articulate a message that Californians don’t hear. He also could have strengthened conservative structures and groups within the party. What is happening now in CA is exactly how they ended up with Arnold instead of someone like McClintock.
I’d vote third party before I’d vote for Fiorina.
that means very little... especially here in California... small amount of support does not mean that someone is not a good candidate... i'm not saying Chuck DeVore is a good candidate, just that his lack of support doesn't mean much in that regard...
