I agree with you, but the "pragmatists" and the "realpolitik" wonks can't even imagine a scenario where a conservative wins. They're too busy gobbling up the distorted polls and biased "man on the street" liberal puff pieces spoon-fed them by the media. Talk about schizo behavior. "Guys, guys, guys, we can't win because the liberal press says we can't, so let's elect a moderate (i.e. liberal)!" This kind of defeatist behavior is simply sickening.

I would just remind those nay-sayers of the following:

Here in FL, where I reside, we never had a GOP governor win a 2nd term in office - until Nov 2002, when Jeb Bush made history.

Terry mcAuliffe and every Dem site on the web made Gov Bush their Numero Uno target to take down. And, what happened, here in this state with more registered Dem voters than GOP voters? Gov Bush won in a landslide - a LANDSLIDE. 57% to 43%.

Success breeds success, and voters here wanted Gov Bush to remain in office. So, they made history by sending him back to Tallahassee for a 2nd term. Apparently, voters didn't care one bit that re-electing a GOP gov in this state had never happened before.

McClintock could win it. It is possible, IMO.
