At the election night party of "tea party" favorite Chuck DeVore in Tustin, Carole Mullner and her daughter Stephanie Perez were among the first to arrive. Outfitted in red T-shirts branding them as "insurgents" for DeVore, they enjoyed a rare moment of calm after months of campaigning for the Republican Senate candidate.
Mullner, an artist and member of the West Covina Tea Partiers, set aside her work in January to hunt down volunteers and raise money as DeVore's "ambassador" for the cities along the 210 Freeway. Perez, a 31-year-old member of the Chino Hills Tea Party, served in that same role in the Inland Empire.
As they waited for results, both women were candid about their distrust of the night's eventual Republican winners, Senate nominee Carly Fiorina and gubernatorial nominee Meg Whitman.
They wanted to know: How did Fiorina get all those endorsements from anti-abortion groups, without any record to speak of? Could she recite passages of the Constitution, as DeVore can? Did she really need to keep her hair that short or was she eyeing a "sympathy vote" after her fight with breast cancer? And with all that baggage from her time as chief executive at Hewlett-Packard, why wasn't it obvious to other voters that Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer would "rip her up"?
"Nobody will work for her," Mullner said when asked whether her fellow tea partiers would fall in line behind Fiorina. She predicted that many would also watch the governor's race from the sidelines. Earlier that day, Mullner said, she had voted for conservative Larry Naritelli for governor to send a signal to Whitman and Steve Poizner that her vote was for "none of the above."

Wht blast her photo all over FR if she is not good?
Great! My mom’s been campaigning for Tom door-to-door in Goleta, first time in her life to do such a thing.
That's my take ... a 98% success rate works for me. Must of been a liberal who put the " tea party fails" part in the headline...
She will because the base won't be there for her.
The RINOs blew it, again, IMO intentionally.
The All or Nothing thrive on having liberal democrats in office, that way they can complain about it.
The All or Nothing crowd don’t have the stomach to deal with and work to have a Republican Senator who is against Cap and Trade, for Free Market, against tax and spend
which are Fiorina’s views so the All or Nothing crowd would rather have Left Wing Boxer with her big taxes, and spend
and for cap and trade.
