CBS 5 Poll: Fiorina Widens Lead Over Boxer (Fiorina 47%, Boxer 42%)
CBS-5 San Francisco ^ | 8-12-10 | Staff

California Republican U.S. Senate candidate Carly Fiorina has increased her lead over Democratic incumbent Barbara Boxer to five percentage points according to a new CBS 5 KPIX-TV poll released Thursday, which also shows gubernatorial candidates Democrat Jerry Brown and Republican Meg Whitman in a dead heat.

The CBS 5 poll, conducted by the research firm SurveyUSA, showed Fiorina edging Boxer 47 percent to 42 percent, compared to a CBS 5 poll one month ago showing Fiorina over Boxer 47 to 45 percent.

The poll results indicated Fiorina's support was essentially unchanged among men and women, young and old, white and Hispanic while Boxer had lost small ground among men, younger voters, and independents.

Although, upon reflection, if this is a "headline" from the newspapers, it makes sense that THEY would consider it a "holocaust". :)

YES! Now you got it !!!

DEMOCRATS ANNIHILATED IN ELECTION HOLOCAUST! <-— Headline Wednesday Morning.

We have to be realistic. A rock-ribbed conservative would not stand a chance in that part of the country (at least not yet).

Tom McClintock (R-CA) got elected to the House, and he's about as conservative as they come. Duncan Hunter is from San Diego.

Don't fall for the lie that "conservatives can't get elected in blue states." It's hogwash. Even more-so in the era of Obama.

Bruce did himself in when he said that CA would be better off with more Uzis.

I agreed with him, and still do, but Uzis are still a hard sell in the Kaliphate.

Fiorina will win and Whitman will lose.

That's the fate of those who don't take illegal immigration as a serious issue.

While Fiorina has never been my favorite candidate, I’m pleased as punch to see her opening a lead on Babs. Boxer simply has to go!

Some great choices they have out there. Sadly the better of the two is the one who is one of the worst executives in the history of American bussiness.

Look for this piece of human vermin Boxer to come up with some kind of dirty trick just before the election. She’s famous for that.

That sounds like a great idea. Think I'll do the same at my place.

I think some are ignoring the effect of Judge Walker’s ruling and more importantly the economic situation. I don’t think Boxer has did anything specially to make matters worse for herself than her simply being a Democrat and a very liberal one even in California terms. Boxer is in a situation like Reid and other Democrats who have been caught being overly arrogant and that is they don’t have anywhere to gain support. Fiorina does and more importantly she has the money to work to increase her support. Boxer and Reid are in the situation where they can go negative in a big way because they have the money but they can only expect increasing returns largely because nearly 50% of potential voters have already tuned them out and don’t believe them no matter what they say.

If we can get a veto proof majority I personally don’t care if we have a zoo full of Rhinos. They can even be albino wino Rhinos.

“......but I don’t see why should be considered an Olympia Snowe Republican.”

Because of her association with McCain as his Financial advisor Carly has beeen tagged a Rino by the knee-jerk crowd. Carly has no elected offical record to point at, and she talks the Conservative talk. Is she? I don’t know and neither do her detractors.

What I do know is that Boxer must go....... a the worst that Carly could possibly do would be 100 times better than what Boxer does on a daily basis.

I am voting for Carly

I am voting against Boxer

Take you pick.....the results the same, and a win for us.

California deserves better than the deadly combination of arrogance and ignorance that is Barbara Boxer......
