California 'ground zero' for '10 election fight

We can vote for the candidate we might like to see in the senate or vote for the one who has the best chance of beating Babs Boxer.
Carly Fiorina not my first choice but she has the best chance of beating Boxer.
This State and the country can’t put up with another 6 years of Left wing Boxer.

[Seaplaner]

Whitman has an excellent chance against whomever the SIEU/ACORN nominates for Dem candidate for governor.

Carly Fiorina can also do well against the U.S. Military-hating Mrs. Boxer, who is gifted , arguably, with the lowest level of cognitive ability among her colleagues within the Senate.

[Lancey Howard]

That’s a fancy way of saying Boxer is as intelligent as a brick?
My money goes on the brick. Boxer is the very face of “stupid”.

Heard the same thing with Arnold.

That's the last mistake I'll make voting for someone who does not support my principles because somebody else tells me that they have the best chance to beat the enemy.

Sorry, but Carly is extremely Pro-Abortion.

Not a chance in hell I'll vote for somebody that support killing babies.

[SierraWasp]

It's just a cryin shame to have to consider either Whitman, or Fiorina for anything... There are righteous conservatives to vote for, especially against Boxer if everyone would get offa their differentials and quit parroting the so-called "CONventional Wisdom" that only non-voting, liberal Repellicans "can win."

That ridiculous posture should neither be bought, nor sold!!!

Especially with the convergent, resurgent ground-swell of anti-Democrat resentment that's erupting right under our noses!!! I hear the lava boiling just under the political surface with the ground shaking and about to erupt like mount Pinatubo!!!

[SoCalPol]

and Babs Boxer is more Conservative, I don’t think so.

[SierraWasp]

"That's the last mistake I'll make voting for someone who does not support my principles because somebody else tells me that they have the best chance to beat the enemy."

And don't let any of these APPEASERS talk you out of your clear thinking decision this time!!!

It's better to go down fighting on your feet, than to live four to six years on your knees because you wavered!!!

[Carry_Okie]

"Californians have had it with career politicians - they're done," said Whitman.

Isn't that what Arnold said? Since the institution of term limits all we've had is a batch of amateurs looking to lobbyists for an "exit strategy."

[Seaplaner]

That's a fancy way of saying Boxer is as intelligent as a brick?

Oui.

Not all Dems are stupid, of course. Some are quite bright (with Jon Stewart being just about the smartest and quickest among the lot.)

That said, I suspect that poor Mrs. Boxer is at the other side of the mental facility curve, in the "tails" as it were.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Boxer's slowness of wit and apparent limits in ability to see simple relationships do not keep her from wanting to order our lives for us.

I do suspect that she is aware that her slow "processor speed"; and as proof, watch her do everything she can to minimize if not avoid a full serious of formal debates with Ms. Fiorina.

Whitman is a disaster. video Meg Whitman: Romney handpicked me and "I'm A Huge Fan Of Van Jones"

[Osage Orange]

I like to listen to jazz....

And enjoy 94.7 The Wave....for the most part.

Whitman is advertising like crazy on that station.

She's a RINO....no doubt about that!

If I still lived in SoCal...I would not vote for her.

Sorry GOP...but the conservative candidates are getting my MONEY...and VOTE for now on!

[Seaplaner]

It's troubling, I'll give you that.

And, I don't yet know who I'll vote for in the primary.

That said, Whitman has the best chance of nomination, so I'll likely be voting for her.

Whomever the GOPer is, it won't be another RR; and it's so critical that we do not get an Angelides or a Newsome. We are already in the poor house, we can't survive a collectivist administration.

.

[ansel12]

Her ads are constant, just like Romney she is willing to spend vast fortunes in the hopes for power and liberal politics.

[SoConPubbie]

and Babs Boxer is more Conservative, I don’t think so.

Disenguous at best on your part!

I never said she was more or less conservative anything.

Just that I won't vote anymore for someone because they have an R next to their name and because somebody is too chicken to fight for their principles. BTW, I meant you by that remark.

Most people vote their conscience in the Primary, but you want all of us who have a conscience to vote against our conscience on the weakness of your claim that she is the only one who can win.

As I mentioned below, I heard that lie before. It was not true then and is not true now.

[SoConPubbie]

Whomever the GOPer is, it won't be another RR; and it's so critical that we do not get an Angelides or a Newsome. We are already in the poor house, we can't survive a collectivist administration.

Same crappy argument we heard about Arnold and he has only further destroyed the Golden State and the GOP.

That lie was not true when it was used for Arnold, Tom McClintock would have easily won if the GOP had gotten behind him.

The same is true for DeVore.

[SoCalPol]

Wishful thinking will get you 6 more yrs. of Boxer.

[Osage Orange]

Ditto that..........

[dragnet2]

"Californians have had it with career politicians - they're done," said Whitman.

Gee Meg, ya think?

[Seaplaner]

I have a lot to learn re each candidate, and could be persuaded to vote for De Vore in the primary.

That said, I will vote GOP in the general election.

Yes, I'd even take a RINO over any Marxist that the Dems put on the ballot.

Case in point, I would much rather have the RINO weasel McCain as pres than the apparent collectivist we now have. Mister Obama can do so very much damage before his term ends, much more that McCain could have screwed things up.

A Dem in Sacramento would be a willing accomplice to the Obama confiscations of rights and property.
