CA is 52/47 Kerry. That's with 11% in. Anyone think there is any chance we can take CA?!
NO...But a good showing wouldn't hurt Bush's national vote total.
Most non-Californians automatically think California is liberal. It's actually the big cities that are mostly liberal... there are lots of conservatives in my home state, believe it or not!
All I can tell you from friend in the Golden State that they pretty much HATE Kerry everywhere but the bay area. We know from a thread a week ago on here that the Vietnamese community has become firmly Republican and have a potential new member of the legislature is a Republican from Little Saigon. If Bush had gone there (instead of PA) he would have carried California -- I REALLY believe it and have said it here for months.
I've always thought it was possible.
