I’d like to tell you about a Commonsense Conservative running for office in California this year. She grew up in a modest home with a school teacher dad, worked her way through several colleges, and then entered an arena where few women had tread. Through a combination of hard work, perseverance, and common sense, she proved the naysayers wrong to reach the top of her field, where she led with distinction – facing hard truths, making tough decisions, and showing real leadership through a rocky transition period. Where others had failed, her company had weathered the storm and settled on a stronger new foundation.
Her name is Carly Fiorina, and I’m proud to endorse her for U.S. Senate.
Carly is the Commonsense Conservative that California needs and our country could sure use in these trying times. Most importantly, she’s running for the right reasons. She has an understanding that is sorely lacking in D.C. She’s not a career politician. She’s a businesswoman who has run a major corporation. She knows how to really incentivize job creation. Her fiscal conservatism is rooted in real life experience. She knows that when government grows, the private sector shrinks under the burden of debt and deficits. We can trust Carly to do the right thing for America’s economy and to make the principled decisions she has throughout her professional career.
Please consider that Carly is the conservative who has the potential to beat California’s liberal senator, Barbara Boxer, in November. I’m a huge proponent of contested primaries, so I’m glad to see the contest in California’s GOP, but I support Carly as she fights through a tough primary against a liberal member of the GOP who seems to bear almost no difference to Boxer, one of the most leftwing members of the Senate. Carly needs our support in this crucial election year when we have a real chance of putting an end to the Pelosi/Reid “Big Government” agenda.
I hope you’ll join me in supporting Carly. Visit her website here, and follow her on Facebook and Twitter. Read up on her positions and plans to help get us on the right track.
California is still Reagan Country, and Carly promises her “Reagan Conservative” values will be put to good use for her state and for our great nation. Shaking it up in California is long overdue. Let’s help Carly do it!

Agreed. DeVore is not well known enough to win in California. Fiorina is going to have a tough time winning there as well.
Californians aren’t going to vote for a straight-up conservative any more.
This line of reasoning makes me so damned angry I would spit nails.
“Let’s don’t fight this battle, we can’t win.” “No this battle simply doesn’t look right.” “Oh I wish we could fight this battle, but no, we can’t win this one.” “Well, it would be nice to win a battle, but we can’t win these kind of battles.” “Wow, it sure would be great to remove the RINOs. This just isn’t the time.”
For C’s sake, when do you folks plan on taking a stand, when we’ve been pushed out of our end zone? If we listen folks like you, our nation will be gone ten years before you’ll agree it’s time to engage in a battle.
Nothing against what I consider to be a nice person, but please get behind some of the right people will ya. Otherwise nothing is EVER going to change.
I don’t know a lot about Carly but have seen her on several shows and like her. Don’t know anything about DeVore.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Okay sparky, if not a Liberal, what exactly is a RINO?
I am amazed at times at the people who don’t understand this.
Carly is a RINO.
The same party that is doing everything to stop her? the same party that doesn’t even like her? please!!!! she is choosing the one that has the best chance to win.....NO one here wants BOXER and in California except for those outside of the cities are center-Left .........for you to say that Sarah chooses republican party people is laughable, a party that despises her from Jeb to Mitt, the Dede’s of the world....etc
Frankly at this point, I want Boxer’s ass gone so bad I don’t care who wins. I just want Boxer gone, she is a disgrace on this state. Even Whitman is better then Boxer, so I really don’t care who wins, even a RINO is better then Boxer
No
NO
NO!!!!
It couldn't be she thinks Fiorina is the better candidate. No. You're right. They've GOT HER, OMG!!!!
But wait, Sarah must be a...a...I can't say it...she's a...a RINO!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Chuck DeVore is stuck in single digits in every primary poll I’ve seen. Meanwhile, the pro-partial-birth-abortion, pro-same-sex-marriage, anti-gun, anti-Zionist, pro-Islamist Tom Campbell is running neck-and-neck with the pro-life, pro-marriage, moderate-to-conservative Carly Fiorina (who recently was endorsed by the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List). If more conservatives vote for DeVore, maybe he’ll get 15%-20%, but the DIABLO Campbell will win the nomination.
Sure, Carly Fiorina isn’t perfect, and she’s certainly less conservative overall than DeVore, but she’d be the most conservative U.S. Senator from California in over 50 years and she has the money and profile to beat Barbara Boxer. Maybe that explains why Sarah Palin endorsed Fiorina.
Don’t worry about the trolls. Notice when they pop up, they sleep for weeks then pop up when a supposed “controversy” comes up. It’s hysterical isn’t it. Seriously, if people don’t live in this state, their opinion about this race is irrelevant to me. Boxer is a disgusting sack of crap, I want her gone, most people want her gone. Whoever beats her, I can care less, it can be DeVore, Whitman, Fiorina, don’t care..anyone and I mean ANYONE is better then Boxer
