I agree, even in Contra Costa County which is just east of Oakland and Bezerkely it is still blue but not as blue as S.F or Alameda county (oakland).. I think one thing too is that the REpublican party here has also been a bit disorganized arguing between the moderates and conservatives...we should find common ground amongst ourselves and go from there. I know some people think Arnold it too liberal on social issues but he is better than some of the Dems around here. We should slowly try and get more power, and shape our future from there.....merry xmas to all.....
I can remember when California was Republican. Maybe if all the republicans moved to the Xburbs it would shift the power in the state enough to get a republican legislature. God knows the libs have practically ruined that state.
Hopefully they are Duncan Hunter Republicans and not the Arnold variety.
