"Of course, but once that they saw that the conservative grassroots was going to be successful in making the recall happen, they decided to highjack it, with their Riordan clone"

That's funny, coming from a McClintock supporter. Issa was the one who put in millions of his own personal money, without which the recall would have gone exactly nowhere. McClintock and Simon didn't put in a dime. They are the ones who are trying to ride in on Issa's money. Issa had the wisdom and decency to withdraw, to help the Republican party. McClintock and Simon,on the other hand insist on staying in the race and being spoilers.

I think Issa got his arm twisted HARD from some folks back in DC

It was going fast enough that he decided it was worth it. It was only a matter of time. Imagine how he felt when the CAGOP told him to butt out. No wonder he was crying. Those guys are real gems.

The Republican Party didn't deserve him.
