You are being lied to about Poizner. He ran in my State Assembly district in 2004. He is a Gore and Kerry supporter, who gave money to the Gore recount fund. During the 2004 event he had an anti-Bush event with Richard Clarke for his campaign. He was 100% pro-life, and 100% anti-gun and proud of it. He ran ads about how he was a “liberal,” which forced the his Democrat opponent to run ads about how he “was the real liberal.” He refused to allow his campaign materials in the GOP office in town. He sent out mailers to all the independent and Democrat voters attacking Republicans. He touted how he would do more to stop global warming than anyone else, but Republicans just wanted to plunder the environment. [I’m not saying anyone should vote for Whitman, but you must be a self-hater if you vote for Poizner. He will be the most leftwing governor in CA history)
Ladies I spoke to during the Searchlight rally felt snubbed by her when they went to hear her speak and to find out her views. She didn't give them the time of day and refused any questions. She didn't fare any better at the NorCal convention.
