Democrats don't approve of all this democracy stuff.
To: Libloather
These people are despicable. Newsom and Cuomo need to go down. Instead of ditching these toads, the Donkeys will circle the wagons and let the rubes just suffer.
In the end, it's the voters who are at fault for falling for the endless con jobs of the garbage estabishment.

“Republicans see this quirky opportunity to slip a Republican governor into the bluest state in the union,” she said. “And I think they are daydreaming.” Yeah?
What happened the last time there was a recall?

It’s all about power, control and self-interest, not taking care of the people. What form of government is that?

You are not going to get a real conservative win a statewide election in California right now. Its kinda like Maine, where Susan Collins just keeps winning the US Senate seat and even still won last year again.
Its better to have Susan Collins than a Dem in the US senate. At least she voted For Kavanaugh when a Dem in her seat woulda voted against Kavanaugh. Same with California.
To: ncalburt
If it’s Fiorina you’re talking about I hope that beotch tries to run. She needs to be spotlighted as the little fake conservative that she is.
To: Libloather
Hey, California Republicans and others concerned about your state and nation. Look at those leading the charge...Newsom, Pelosi, Swallwell, Schiff...where are they all from??? CALIFORNIA. Put it back on those Dems that it is funny that our own reps...Pelosi, Schiff, Swallwell have used impeachment as a recall, but don’t or won’t allow it for Newsom for their own constituents.

I bet they will check every signature with a graphologist, verify every address to make sure that the signer is a registered voter in the region they claim to live and generally use every trick available to disqualify every signature. Oooo, your registration signature had a dot over the i, but your recall signature didn't ---- REJECTED!

What good is a Republican governor, who would more than likely be a RINO, when the Rats have super majorities in both chambers?

I hear your point but I think it’s better to run as who you are and not be a squishy conservative. May as well go down swinging your fists.

You gotta start somewhere. Cut the head off the snake.

Whichever Republican runs for a statewide elective office in California will run exactly as who they are, liberal Republicans.
Did you think for a minute that Susan Collins is a secret conservative?
Susan Collins has always been liberal in the old fashioned sense, same as she's been a Republican.
To: SmokingJoe
With roughly 15-million Hispanics in the state, I think I’d go and develop that base.
To: KarlInOhio
I remember when Gray "Gumby" Davis was recalled in California - the dems fought it every single step of the way:
The Issa recall committee's e-mail claimed that California Secretary of State Kevin Shelley, belonging to the same party as the Governor, resisted certification of the recall signatures as long as possible. By mid-May, the recall organization was calling for funds to begin a lawsuit against Shelley, and publicly considered a separate recall effort for the Secretary of State (also an elected official in California).
Yes, a RINO (Schwarzenegger) was elected, but it proved it could be done. I'll take the RINO over Newsom.

But time is running out, he conceded. “It’s really about the next 30 days," when the recall campaign must show evidence they've collected 1.5 million valid signatures.Meh, the same 'officials' who count the votes will be the same ones validating 'valid signatures.'
