Then those people with the R's by their name need to start running some people I (I am sure I am not the only one fed up) can vote for, since we know the candidates are NOT actually selected "by the People" but from above.
Nuff said on the subject
How about dealing with REALITY and acting like a responsible adult?
In CA there are only 35% Republicans. You can't elect anyone with 65% of the people voting for the opponent. If a Republican candidate can't appeal to moderates and even Dems, they cannot be elected to any statewide office in CA.

"The Democratic Party currently has an advantage of 1.4 million voters over the Republican Party (7.1 million to 5.7 million) or 9 percentage points (43% to 34%), according to the Secretary of State.
Among those most likely to vote in this year’s elections, Democrats outnumber Republicans by a 7-point margin (44% to 37%), while 15 percent of likely voters are registered as independents.
... the fact that independents are more likely to lean toward Democrats than Republicans (42% to 28%) tends to work to the disadvantage of the GOP in statewide elections."
