Fiorina is pro-amnesty and pro-cap-and-trade; and she talks about "getting things done." If that's her A-list, I'd rather she didn't.

So, tell me why I should be getting all tingly about a RINO that paints the Republican Party as a pack of arrogant corporate elitists? Why do I want another Snowe or Collins? What about judges? What difference does it make with Obama making the appointments? If a Republican flushes him in 2012, do we want a "gang of 15"?

What about treaties? Fiorina is an unrepentant globalist, while actual ratification doesn't carry the weight it once did.

Didn't we learn our lesson with Schwarzenegger? If Davis had tanked the State in another two years, wouldn't we have been in better position to get it back instead of running ANOTHER Wilson clone as our only hope?

Since when have RINOs backed conservative nominees? Look at what has happened to every single conservative nominee for statewide office since Schwarzenegger snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. What have you seen in Delaware? Look at what's happening in Colorado or Florida. Is backing RINOs really worth it when together with Democrats they constitute a governing majority with Republicans taking the blame for the consequences?

Didn't we learn our lesson in 2006?

Yup. What’s the difference between liberal Republicans like Fiorina and Whitman and the Democrats? California Republican voters rejected conservative candidates in their primaries in favor of celebrity candidates with no real principle.

Just like with the current Governor. I can’t say I’m enthused about it and then again the GOP is the Stupid Party.

Fiorina is pro-amnesty and pro-cap-and-trade

Why do you say that when her websitte says she is clearly against it?

"However, Barbara Boxer’s misguided cap-and-trade legislation will not lead us in that direction, which is why Carly ardently opposes it. This disastrous bill will lead to more job losses for American families and more onerous regulation on our nation’s businesses. In fact, a recent Heritage Foundation report finds that cap-and-trade would cost American families $2,872 every year! Boxer’s cap-and-trade scheme won’t produce a single megawatt of new energy; instead, it will punish manufacturers and small-business owners and put the U.S. at a competitive disadvantage with nations like China and India."

"An effective temporary worker program for seasonal agricultural employees..."

Where do you get Carly is pro-amnesty and pro cap and trade when I just picked these off her website?

-—”So, tell me why I should be getting all tingly about a RINO that paints the Republican Party as a pack of arrogant corporate elitists?”

So what you’re saying is, “Unless I get my way (e.g. get a non-RINO conservative), I don’t want it” — WHICH MEANS YOU’RE SAYING YOU WOULDN’T VOTE FOR A BOXER OPPONENT AND THEREFORE YOU’D RATHER HAVE BOXER.

Be realistic for a change. (I live in Calif and anything we can do to get rid of that moronic Boxer, the better).

They never learn. They always live and respond to fear, and will swallow any imposter with sweet-sounding political cliches.

Charlie Brown indeed.
