DeVore, who could get elected in many states, has no chance here.You don't live in the state and therefore, are excused for your comments. DeVore, who could get elected in many states, has no chance here.

Democrats have a nearly 2-1 lead in registration, and most Independents lean left. Irreputable fact. Only in a year like this does someone like Fiorina have a chance, and she still must run a nearly flawless campaign.

Though not socially conservative enough for most here, Campbell would be ahead by 15. His forte is economics, which is exactly the sort of knowledge needed in the Senate at this time in our history. He would have added 75 points to the IQ level of the vanquished Boxer.

Well, I live here. And based on the results of prior elections, such as Simon and Herschenson, DeVore most definitely could win here.

Heck even in the Recall, McClintock/Arnold took 70% of the vote -- and that is when Arnold was running on a conservative platform. Conservatism sells. RINO middle-mush does not.

The problem is, the RINO squishes running the GOP in California won't LET a conservative get on the ballot. They went out and wooed Carly and Meg to run. Then they send out their minions to promote the "they can't win" mantra in regards to any conservative.

There is only one reason conservatives don't win in California: their own party apparatus won't lift a finger to put them on the ballot. (And if they get there on their own, they stab them in the back and sabotage their campaign).

It wasn't that long ago that this State nearly elected Bill Simon after an incompetent campaign with his own party stabbing him in the back. Since then, what remained of the conservative GOTV ground game has been completely disassembled. The CAGOP doesn't want us even trying; they think they can buy the offices they actually seek.

RINOs get no enthusiasm from the people who used to do all the footwork. The last time you saw that energy was the recall and Prop 8. Both won.

Unlike many here, I actually like Tom personally. Although he thinks he knows a lot about economics, he has no concept for why his social preferences are so terribly costly to State government. His thinking is compartmentalized and he is easily misled (especially in matters of foreign policy). Both he and Fiorina are unrepentant globalists. Either one is especially bad in the Senate.
