Here's how I see things. Nick Jesson - Best conservative candidate
Bill Simon - More of a moderate Republican than a conservative
Reardon - Might just as well be a Democrat

Look I'm sorry your candidate has cast himself into the kook fringe, but that's his fault not ours.

Please don't offend your fellow freepers by suggesting that a prolife, anti tax, pro 2nd Amendment candidate is a "moderate". The California Prolife Council, The NRA, and the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association know what they are talking about. So do:

Bruce Herschensohn
William F. Buckley, Jr.
R. Emmett Tyrrell
Jeanne Kirkpatrick
Paul Weyrich
Jack Kemp
Milton Friedman
California Republican Assembly
California College Republicans
National Republican Liberty Caucus
California Pro-Life Council
John Herrington, Former Chairman, California Republican Party
Mike Schroeder, Former Chairman, California Republican Party
John McGraw, Former Chairman, California Republican Party
Curt Pringle, Former Speaker, California State Assembly
State Assemblyman John Campbell
State Assemblyman Tony Strickland
State Assemblyman Jay La Suer
State Assemblyman Dennis Mountjoy
State Senator Rico Oller

to name a few. These are NOT people who endorse moderates. If the conservative leaders of this nation say Bill Simon is a conservative, then he pretty much is that.

Fringe? Thanks for playing Dan. Don Pardo, what gifts do you have for our parting guest.

"to name a few. These are NOT people who endorse moderates. If the conservative leaders of this nation say Bill Simon is a conservative, then he pretty much is that."

Wow! Those were some powerful words, Dan!

I think it's interesting that you name a number of former Republican leaders for the state. Aren't you the least bit curious as to how this state came to be what it is today?

Those men supported Mr. Wonderlust Pete Wilson. Conservative voices? Please. Spare us.

Perhaps you can tell us what Simon's stance on Illegal Immigration is. As a conservative I'm sure he's strong on "LAW" and order right?
