I responded to an email from the McCain orgnanization that if he (McCain) is for her I am against her.

“So I don’t care who the nomoniee is as long as we win this one. We can elect more conservative Senators in the other states.”

This makes no sense at all. If we don’t care who the nominee is, then we might as well all stay home and let others decide. This kind of thinking is what gives us the Arlen Specters (supported by Bush!) and Olympia Snowes. If the Republican Party is going to abandon principle in favor of expediency, it has no purpose whatsoever.

You should learn to read. As I said in a perfect world I love to have the perfect conservative. But seeing as this is California we might not get that perfect conservative. I want someone who can win. If Fiorina is not my perfect candidate but can beat Boxer, then I'm for her. If DeVore is closer to my perfect conservative but loses to Boxer, where does that get us? Of course I'd rather have the perfect conservative as Senator. But Boxer is killing us. We need to get rid of her. That's job one. This woman MUST go! If Fiorina has a better chance of beating her, then despite her faults I will go with her.

WHY OH WHY ARE PEOPLE BACKING THIS WOMAN? HER CAREER IN LEADERSHIP WAS AN ABJECT FAILURE! SHE’S PRO ABORTION AS WELL! California, you can do better.. you are a state in bankruptcy, you need and deserver better then this woman. Nip this thing in the bud, she’s welcome in the party, but you cannot convince me you don’t have better than her to run.

Um, I want a Republican who if Abortion comes to a vote, or a Supreme Cout Justice nominee comes up, will not become an apologist for a pro infanticide piece of legislation or judicial activist.

Sorry, I have no issues with less than perfection, but Carly isn’t even close to acceptable.

A liberal republican cannot be depended on when the chips are down, they have screwed over the people too many times. This woman is just a bad candidate period, California you can do better.

Defeat of anti-abortion hard liner Doug Hoffman is not helping DeVore. It is a pity GOP lost a seat held for over a century to another Nancy Pelosi backer, the democrat in NY.

How can “we” screw up when, if Fiorina runs, you have two Democrat candidates to pick from. The “we” of the Rino party - I don’t care if they win or they lose. They are just as bad as the Democrats for the country.

“You should learn to read.”

I don’t think you needed to be uncivil. I did not think my comment was.

I don’t know what has happened to Coburn, he was one of the good ones.

This should tell you all you need to know about Carly. She may be a Republican, but she's no conservative.

Carly = NO THANK YOU!

I suspect those endorsees bear more weight in California than more conservative senators would.

Carly says she is pro-life. An endorsement from Snowe doesn’t change that.

Sometimes we have to go with the best we got ...

Tom McClintock has endorsed DeVore, Snowe endorses Fiorina, that in itself has helped make my decision.

OK, Collins, Snowe, Graham, and McCain need to go - all liberals. I don’t know much about the other 4 but I’d bet that they’re RINOs as well.
