In many other states, U.S. Senate candidate Chuck DeVore could be a rising political star, aligning himself with the budding tea party movement and the growing animosity toward increases in government spending.
A termed-out lawmaker known for his right-wing rhetoric on the floor of the California Assembly, DeVore has the pedigree of the ideal conservative candidate: leader in the Orange County Republican Party, Desert Storm veteran and officer in the Army National Guard, consistent record speaking out against tax hikes and critic of global warming.
His critiques even have been bipartisan. DeVore didn't like the bank bailout that began under President George W. Bush and he has railed against the Obama administration's efforts to sustain automakers and combat the recession.
It's that consistency that has made DeVore popular with skeptics of federal interventions of just about any sort and has endeared him to the most loyal party die-hards.

Is he the one we’ve been waiting for?
Sorry, could not resist. :)
DeVore beats the alternatives!
I heard him speak Tuesday night in Placerville. He is the real deal, a conservative who knows why he’s a conservative and can articulate it. He deserves our support.
served with him...good guy
Bump. Guys like him are what we need. Not more of the same RINO garbage.
I sent him $50 last week.
I wish Carly was running for gov instead of Meg so as to let Chuck win this primary. I will not vote for Whitman. Reason - I don’t want a RINO taking down California as what it will be for the next governor. Lay this on the commies of CA.
