A view from the liberal NY Times, with best wishes for Californians in ousting Boxer. C'mon California!

How about if Bush offers her a Cabinet position? She accepts, Ahnold appoints a Republican Senator, then Bush "reluctantly" accepts her resignation 1 week later on the grounds that she is not qualified to run a newspaper stand, let alone a gov't entity??? :-)

If all Californians knew the complete story of this carpetbagger's rise to national power, her defeat would be a slam dunk.
In liberal politics, sleaze, political acumen, timing, blackmail, imagination, hypocrisy and a rat's instinct for... well, being a rat... is everything.

Most of my fellow citizens in the PRK think that Boxer is the problem. Actually Feinswine is the worst of the two idiots who make up our Senatorial delegation. Throw 'em both out, IMO. I am not holding my breath waiting for that to occur, however. The sheeple here still believe that there is a free lunch.

Nonetheless, Mr. Behr said, Ms. Boxer is preparing for a tough race because she expects "far right extremists" to rally round whomever the Republicans nominate.

Barbara Boxer is a far left extremist.

Barbara Boxer is a shining example of the old saying:

"You can't beat somebody with nobody."

She seems very beatable, but until the Republicans find a good candidate, organize a good campaign and have all the pieces fall into place to oust her she will remain a U.S. Senator. My only consolation is that so long as Republicans hold a majority in both houses of Congress, governorships and seats in state legislatures, the Democrats will be the ones on the losing end of this particular old saying more often than not. : )

Could it be there is a sympathy factor for Barbara Boxer Shorts? After all, she is a mental defective.

Beware of mental defectives with a mouth and a facility for demagoguery.

The twentieth century is replete with them.

Fortunately, Boxer is a pollywog in national politics, keeping to the shadows and hiding behind the bigger frogs.

Barbara Boxer has delusions of adequacy

I'm hoping more than a few moderate patriots support anyone facing this "far left extremist" demogorgon.

But Ms. Boxer might benefit if Mr. Bush bypasses California, as his father did in 1992, the year she won her first race for the Senate.

Sounds like wishful thinking. I should have known she was up for re-election this year. Otherwise no way this harpy would have been so silent lately.

Interesting that Tom McClintock's name never came up in this article.

Indeed. Almost intentional I'd say. Maybe he would be her worst nightmare. She'd have to debate a living breathing "far right extremists" face to face.

I was wondering; If Bush has already has won before the polls close in CA if it would depress dem turnout(ie the fraud machine) enough to put ms marin over the top?

Actually, I think JANICE ROGERS BROWN would be Boxer's worst nightmare.

"A view from the liberal NY Times, ..."

Hmmm. You yourself posted the article and you couldn't remember that it's from the conservative NY POST?

The headline on the article is ludicrous. GOP Faces Obstacles In Ousting Boxer. That's not news. What WOULD be news is if the CA GOP DID NOT face obstacles in ousting Boxer. THAT would be news.

LOL! I like it.

Only thing Boxer can run is her mouth, and she makes a shockingly disgraceful botch of that.

I think the GOP has just smacked the proverbial beehive and if they stand around wondering if the "bees" will turnout they are going to get stung! Better worry about rallying all your own first. Last time I remember there were a very divisive recall once upon a time.

Well, at least some people have been doing some thinking in this direction.
