So Rirodan was a better choice than Simon - but the CRA got Simon in - but then did not have enough power to have the party fund him?

Actually, Bill Jones was the far better choice than either Riordan or Simon, but he was (and is) a complete unknown with no money. But the CRA threw their support behind Simon (partly because they knew that there was going to be significant Democrat crossover for Simon, which would make their task easier). They figured that Simon would be self-funding.

They didn't bother to find out if Simon had a clue as to how to campaign...

What was Simons gift?

Death penalty for sodomy? Tax on impure thoughts? There must have been a promise made to the freaks behind the curtains - Since they forced the party to give him so much money.

These guys are extremist that can't seem to do anything right and put up candidates that do not support their suppose positions?

Is anyone saying that Simon is also a part of this group?

BTW: Speaking of Bill Jones, I heard from a friend of his that he is most likely going to go after Boxer's seat and will supported by Arnold. Jones is fantastic, and would have been my first choice for Governor.
