Hope fund raising was very successful - if only Pelosi could be replaced.

My husband is a 49er fan, raised in the Central Valley. There are a lot of conservative 49er fans there.

Seriously!

I am very encouraged to see VP nominee Ryan here actively fundraising. Some people on a related thread are boo-hooing this and saying California is a lost cause -- I say it is not. I also believe that R&R think it's worth fighting for and they're bringing the fight to the enemy's doorstep.

California can be great again and I believe it can go GOP again.

I agree with you. I am in the Bay area and had to laugh when I saw this because Obama is forever coming here and he always closes down streets snarls traffic and makes a big mess but I see that things are running smoothly with Ryan here. I hope he gets lots of money and that they put it to good use and get rid of OBAMA!!!!!!!

Maybe Safeway’s worried about Moochelle’s latest project, which is to control the food offered in supermarkets so that people can’t buy anything unhealthy. Seriously, that’s what she said.

I think you’ll see pressure put on supermarkets not to carry things like sugar or anything containing sugar, things like bottled water (the new target of “environmentalists”), and probably bread and certain meats. I think she realizes that giving us all ration booklets and trying to restrict the consumer isn’t going to work, so she’s going to pressure the grocery stores instead.
