Found it! Well, that's a very good point, and considering the early returns it does suggest Bilbray's on track to win. The way I'd figured it was that Bilbray was generally regarded as the 'moderate' choice, while Roach and Kaloogian were the more conservative options, and that since Kaloogian seemed like a flop, in a very fractured primary I thought Roach would then pull it out.
But then, I did think to myself that Bilbray was easily the most prominent 'moderate' whereas Roach & Kaloogian were splitting the more conservative vote, so that favored Bilbray. I still thought Roach would pull it out though, in part because of the money he spent too.
Maybe Roach bought a zillion on the ground workers for today but I doubt. Today's vote was light, as per usual for this kind of election. The Pubbie prospects are enhanced by Bilbray in this RINO tinged district (I know, everyone thinks otherwise but they are wrong and I am not), but the downside is that Bilbray is shop worn, and a lobbyist, and not the sharpest knife in the drawer. So I don't know which would be better in the general, and have never seen either on the tube to see whether one or both or neither can chew gum and walk at the same time. Busby I don't think is Henry Clay material for that matter either.
He was the best choice-in my opinion-and the only rational choice for the GOP, if it has any hope of winning this open seat, retaining control of Congress, and-God willing-derailing this amnesty abomination.
A gifted former congressman, with impeccable credentials on the subject of illegal immigration, and-from what I've read-an environmental record that will even appeal to the wastoids that would ordinarily pull the lever for a moonbat like Busby.
The people who are agitating against Brian Bilbray are the same individuals who castigated Pete Wilson.
If Pete Wilson had been our nominee in 1996 we wouldn't even be debating whether or not to retroactively ratify the criminal actions of 12-20 million illegal aliens.
We would be discussing the merits of a second term for his anti-illegal immigration, sonservative, Republican successor.
