I was under the impression that, Ahnuld aside, the California GOP is actually pretty conservative (think Tom McClintock). The problem with CA is that the GOP is tiny compared to the preponderance of Dims and Dim influence from LA and SF? NY GOP is liberal, but what about the Illinois state party? IL gave us Henry Hyde and a host of good Reps, IIRC. Some RINOs, but not as many as we'd expect from a Northeastern State, right? What's important in these primaries is not the political leaning of the State as a whole, but of the State GOP organisation. Like in IA - the State as a whole is moderate(which is why it usually goes slightly Dim, and Bush on slightly won it in 2004), but the State GOP is heavily tilted towards the SoCon Right, hence Huckabee was handed a victory which, if the whole State were voting, he would not have come anywhere receiving.
Damn right they are. You don’t get it?
Same reason they treated Harris like dirt.
Same reason they pushed Gonzales so hard.
*A*M*N*E*S*T*Y*
The brothers Bush are 100% pro amnesty and support all who are of like mind and none that are not.
And I voted for them both, both times.

Could care less what his two readers think! I operate off of what I think, no one leads me around with a ring in my noise.
McCain will not win SC. Especially after tonight’s debate, he looked spiteful and angry.
Not the headline itself- what you had in parenthesis!
No biggie:)
Anywhere NEAR receiving, I mean.
My error.
South Carolina seems to bear the signs of being a GOP campaigning hell hole again, this season.
The State is a pretty moderate to lib paper. This doesn’t surprise me.
I'm with you on that one!
See youse com in her witch yur fancy spelcheck and wat not. We true beleevers dun been knowed better. Dudes got like an awsum blimp man...
Wishful thinking on the authors part.kick mcnutts to the curb.
Seems Fred has made inroads in SC.
Theres a few nutters there, but a lot of support for Fred, and if Fred does well in SC I think there will be a strong shift in momentum.
Go Fred!
The State is for big government, more taxes, and hates Gov. Sanford with a passion.
I just watched that crazy McCain at the ABC debate lying through his teeth, one more time, about the fact that he supports amnesty.
The first thing he would do as president is legalize every illegal alien in the country and then he’d get on TV and swear it wasn’t amnesty.
'nough said. :)
...John "Keating Five" McCain, you should quit (for the sake of the Republic...not your vanity)
....b/c that's what the 'Rats'/MSM/Marxist-Socialists will call you....and don't say they're corrupt, too.....LMSM, will never report their "ethical" problems...shortcomings.
“Tell us what it was he brought to the campaign that the candidates already running did not already offer.”
Other than his MSM purported negatives of no fire in the belly,
A consistant Conservative who does not waffle?
