I don't think they could defeat the Gov. in the primary, but don't doubt conservatives (especially third party types) sabotaging the election in favor of a Democrat in some vain attempt to repeat their ignorant points about what they want.
If the voting CA people agreed with the most conservative of us, wouldn't we have none of these liberals around in power now?
At some point you would think these people would figure out that the changes need to be made in the way voters vote through education and time. Nothing will get better overnight.

I can't tell you how many times a section of conservative people have seemed to lose their minds, not voted or threw away their vote and then complained about all the Communist Democrats in office.

AMAZING

Bottom line, who ever gets the Republican nomination should get the vote in the main election.
The rest of the energy for all of us wanting more conservative change in this state should be IMO directed toward creating a wider base of voters, or to convert 3% of what votes Democrat now to our side.
No easy task but that's what we need to do.

Tell that to simon after he beat Rairdon... ;-)

It's why the ca gop powers decided let's just skip a primary this time. Don't sweat the details, Just win Baby!

Oh , and don't come crying here to the FR conservatives after the election in November. I'm willing to bet Tom gets more votes overall cast for him than the Gub in their respective races.

We could save ourselves a lot of grief just doing things the way they used to be done, but then the New Majorityite party hijackers wouldn't back the primary winner is my guess. Nothing new there.

and you and others here from the FR Vichy Milque would continue to whine and complain about conservatives whining if they don't get 'their way'. lol

it makes you wonder why some folks even bother anymore when you pretend to claim folks just need more educating.. it seems more like indoctrinating to me. or goosestepping in lockstep. Oh well.

This isn't about the governor for many. It's about the process. When the CRP closed the primary they began reaping what they sowed.

If the CRP continues to ignore tradition this will probably not be the last we hear about rebellion.

The CRP may well end up the laughing stock of California's partisan arena if their grass roots adopts a clothespin as their campaign button.

Man! That's sure a lot of vitriol for conservatives. Based on your comment, I assume you support:

• Big Spending?
• Big Borrowing?
• More Gun Control?
• Land Grabs?
• Liberal judicial appointments?
• Minimum Wage Hikes?
• Prop GLBT Legislation?
• Taxpayer/ratepayer subsidies for solar roofs and hydrogen highways?
• Global Warming regulations?
• Liberals dominating the Executive Suite?

Last I looked, none of these were part of the Republican platform. If you don't like the criticism, perhaps you are the "third party type."

The fact is, the state is moving left under Republican leadership because liberal policies are being sold and/or accepted under the (R) label. Apparently that matters not to some. In my mind, socialism is socialism, no matter the label.
