Now he's the logical Republican to challenge Barbara Boxer next year and prove that a pro-lifer can win in California. Yeah, when NARAL Pro Choice America and EMILY's List and Sierra Club and the NAACP and the AFL-CIO and the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund and Planned Parenthood and the NEA and the Human Rights Campaign and Handgun Control and League of Conservation Voters and the rest air their ads and mobilize against him, he'll be not just toast, but burnt toast. Bush will not win California and McClintock will not beat Boxer. It's incredibly naive. This is a state that rejected Prop 54 and supported by an incredible margin someone who isn't a social conservative. In federal races, social issues do matter-- a lot.

Pocketbook issues matter a lot and as for the social issues - just change the types of issues in the campaign. Don't follow the Democrats' playbook.
