Cuffaro was with Simon back when he had 4% in the primary.

He doesn't have a moderate bone in his body.

Will radical Muslims sue you?

With all due respect, obsessing on Issa's lip service to anti-profiling laws is as relevant to my State's budget crisis as the Davis' minions refrain about losing Davis will mean woman will lose their right to choose.

It has nothing to do with the relevant Governor issues! Issa is a true blue fiscal conservative, precisely what this state needs spending 38-40% more per budget than the prior one. He can make the tough stands for cuts that frankly a "new tone consensus maker" like Arnold can't. You talk about RINOs!

Lay off the Issa flaming.

As for McClintock, he explains the budget mess better than anyone, read this op-ed he wrote in the OC Register.

I'd support Bill Simon for Senate next year against Boxer.

Tony Strickland is thinking about running.

That's where my support is going. Draft Strickland!

I hate to admit it, but I know nothing about Tony Strickland. Does he have a website?

Issa is a true blue fiscal conservative...

There is no doubt in my mind that Issa is far better than 'Ahnuld'.

But my experience tells me not to trust those who find it necessary to label themselves as 'fiscal conservatives'. Almost always, that is a codeword for someone who regularly sells us out on a wide range of other issues, and who, when enough pressure is applied, always end up selling us out fiscally too.

Just my two cents worth, as much as you don't want to hear it.

Well take that out on me, not him, because I choose that word. He actually is very socially conservative, the democrates describe him actually as "extreme" in that "family values" sense. I'm socially as well as fiscally as well, so I can tell you this;

Don't get hung up on some minor story about him, that is what the Enemy wants. What the great state of CA needs right now is a devoted, principled Fiscal Conservative. Other issues are not relating to the power of the CA Governor has, and certainly not related to our -$38.2 budget crisis.

We need someone who can say No to the very powerful, very evil State-Employee Unions. He hasn't backed down from them one bit. He would be what CA needs.

Well, the decision is certainly his, and yours.

Decision for what?

Californians will make this decision, according to who makes the decision to run.

You have our prayers and our support. It is important to the future of the entire republic that CA gets its political house in order by ridding itself of the elected leaders who are destroying our most populated and powerful state.

Good luck and God speed.

Thank you, if we can get a conservative in there, I promise the effects of this will touch of politically as well as economically across the country.

This may be the beginning of the end of the modern Liberal Tax and Spender.

Who is Mr. Cuffaro?

I am not part of a Simon cult, I'm just sick of the contempt that the CAGOP has for the voters. I would love to have McClintock as our candidate, but I wouldn't blame him if he didn't want to run. Who needs their reputation ruined? The attacks on McClintock have already started, in another six months, he will probably have been portrayed as a junkie who frequents male prostitutes.

By the way, the only two Republicans in this area, including Don Gage, have a BLANKET POLICY not to endorse other Republicans in elections. Last fall, Republicans running for congress, the state legislature, and other offices asked them to endorse them. They refused!

One needn't drink the Kool-Aid to want Davis gone. However, neither the republican elite in Washington, nor the California republican party supported Simon in the manner that they would have, had he been "their" chosen candidate. The fact is, that he almost won without their support. Some of us won't drink from either batch, whatever the partisan flavor!

Bears repeating
