There aren't enough conservatives in CA to elect McClintock, just as there weren't enough of us to elect Dan Lungren or Bill Simon. Sorry to disagree with you.

Yes, there are. Remember, the key is not whether you have the majority living in the state, but whether you have the majority of those showing up to vote. This is actually one the ideal times in recent California history when a true conservative can win due to the frustration many feel with the democrat Davis, and the likely voters whi will show up (many conservatives).

Those two ran terrible campaigns.

So they hardly are proof conservatives can't win
they are proof that a candidate who runs a conservative
and fails to defend his views and acts ashamed
of being a conservative gets beat in California.

Simon only lost by 5% in running prehaps the worst
campaign in history.
And Lungren loss had more to do with voters
digust with Wilson than with Lungren.

Dan Lungren was not the conservative choice in the primary. He was completely uninspiring. Simon's campaign was horribly run, the GOP PTBs never really got behind him and the infernal mainstream media most Californians are hostage to obfuscated and ignored all Davis' mishandlings and sellouts -- and Simon still only lost by 5%.
 
Get the word out. Vote McClintock. He's the normal guy.
