Rather than engage in objective debate focused on the facts and the truth of real human and financial situations, such as the extraordinary burdens placed on the California taxpayer as a result of illegal immigrants (nicely changed to undocumented workers), the GOP backs down and stays as quiet on the subject as the other guys. Yet we all know that if you treat huge debts and expenses as if they don't exist, you go bankrupt, or you subvert the truth and cook the books to produce a reality that suits your agenda. This is one example of how Davis has distorted the facts, while dipping deeper into our pockets.
But, we're not supposed to talk about it. Hush Hush. And anyone who addresses it is a hateful bigot. Such cowardice is a huge reason why voters who would show up in droves for a legit person like Simon, and help to make a mockery of Riordan's hypocrisy, will instead tune out....again. I guess this is the way the control freaks, lobbyists, and suits in Sacramento continue to prevent any substantive change in a borderline marxist state.
I know that progress occurs incrementally, not immediately. But we the voters have tried to make statements that still cannot be translated into an honest connection with moral leaders who exhibit and practice integrity. Props 187 and 209 have been either sent to the dustheap by a liberal judge or end-around boards of regents. Prop 22, by a 61% margin, surely ripe for an advocate in the governor's race to seize as an expression of a value system that has worked for 2000 years, instead is subject to continual attack, most recently by the temporarily tabled AB1338. Staged jihads and "alternative lifestyles" now pass for curricula in the public school systems, but God help any administrator who says a single word about a Christian value.
To tell you the truth, I never thought it was possible to see so much degradation and intentional subversion of the laws and the processes of government than I have witnessed here in my beloved state. I am a hopeful person, not willing yet to give in and appease for the sake of winning some pyrrhic victory. I am voting for Bill Simon as he does seem to connect directly with the belief system and the values of almost everyone I know on my block here in Mission Viejo.
It's too bad that the media thought police have by and large obstructed this information from widespread distribution. Most of the same people I described have no idea who Bill Simon is, and perhaps the party fathers here in California want nothing more than to run things the same way Jesse Unruh would have.
The lifeless, flatline GOP could end the Dems' game of racial gothcha in an instant - the very nanosecond the GOP makes it clear that both sides will henceforth be playing by the same rules. But they are too timid. They could bring into the polls the MAJORITY of conservative people if they knew someone would finally support all of the issues that scream for legitimate advocacy: immigration, closing the borders, language, family, but people stay away because every election it's the same thing. The GOP have become undetakers at a funeral home.
The only legimate candidate is Simon. Even the GOP gathering at the Fremont Hotel this weekend has Riordan shutting down the straw poll because he knows that it would reveal him for the fraud that he is. But the GOP is willing to appease the liberals and back an outright sellout like Riordan. Like Neville Chamberlain in 1938, liberalism and not standing your ground for what you believe in, is appeasement. And appeasement always leads to slavery.

We, my wife and two children, left CA...for some of the reasons you mention. The overturning of the PROPS....were one of the ''final straws'' for us....................
