Why I will vote for Bill Simon: Hugh Hewitt analyzes governor's race in California

First, we need to make history today by voting for Simon and getting others out to vote for him.

This morning I sent an email out to 50 Californians reminding them and urging them to vote for Simon. Later I will email and phone those at work to remind them to please stop at the polls and vote for Simon before they go home.

Then, after we make history by making him the victor today, we can start closing the book on the Fadeout Fascist Davis!

California and America can't afford four more years of the Fascist Davis!

Simon is going to win BIG!!!

I spent a few hours on the telephone Sunday calling "likely GOP" voters, and they were at least 10 to 1 in favor of.... BILL SIMON!!!

Great article,Ron, but Hugh took a cheap shot at Homer Simpson!!LOL

RonDog, who do you recommend for Lt. Gov? Sec. of State? Treasurer? Insurance Commissioner?

[goldstategop]

I've already done my part for history and I hope conservatives all across California are doing the same. Moments like this only come along once in a lifetime and I was too young to have voted in 1966.

I get the same sense, from a distance, that Simon will be a big winner. Riordan's only issue was the claim that he could "win," so once he lost his lead in the polls, he lost his only issue. The Pubbie base seems pretty energized.

I also get the sense that the Dems aren't very excited about Davis, although core voters will obviously vote for him.

Thanks, RonDog. The 'd14truth' household has 'SIMONized' their primary ballots.

The central issue in California in 2002 is the almost breathtaking incompetence of Gray Davis, a career political hack who found himself in the biggest job in the state and froze. On issue after issue Davis has fumbled the ball and called it a touchdown. He believes he can spin himself out of his disastrous handling of the state power shortage and his mismanagement of the state's budget.

All New Jersey Freepers should read this, since this statement describes precisely the same central issue that will face Jim McGreevey in 2005. Buckle up and enjoy the ride -- It's going to be a bumpy one, but I wouldn't miss it for the world.

Sorry, CG - I have no firm advice on those races.

I was voting for ANYBODY but Riordan.

The Stepford Governor

Priceless. I just got back from voting for Simon. Also voted for John Adams (actual write in) against child molestor Judge Klein, No on 45 and No on W.

Go Simon!

THANK YOU, BOTH ~~ For your phone bank efforts!

I was so proud of Hugh Hewitt when he announced this on his show last evening. I missed him tonight; I was at a Diamondbacks game. :-)

This was great!! Looks like a lot of Californians thought along the lines of Hugh's great articulation of thought.
