"Now where were we?"

We are where we have to make a choice between Arnold and Angelides and every time, you seem to choose Angelides.
How conservative is that?
Those in the party leadership were already in hot water with the party membership over events in 2003 and the elitist appointment of a liberal, Democrat look alike candidate for governor in 2005 was probably the final straw. When the CAGOP denied the party membership the right to nominate a gubernatorial candidate of their choice the lights went out.
Had I volunteered to work on the FreeRepublic campaign, I'd be ducking and running right now. On my next employment application I would never mention my connection with the FairOpinion fiasco. I'd simply say I was a Republican Party functionary.
Conservatives weren't happy with the CAGOP for surrendering its principles in 2003. Anointing a liberal windbag for governor has made us irate.
