Gladly! ...when they support Conservative causes.
This is exactly why the Republican Party is so dead in this state. It needs to start by dropping all of the social stuff and just get this state turned on fiscal issues alone. McClintock sans social issues. And the Republicans that do exist have to suck-it-up and support them. 'Cause true fiscal conservatives could win if marketed correctly in this state. THEN AND ONLY THEN, once the Republican base is built back up, start slowly going after social issues. And get off of them when you start seeing a Dem comeback. I really don't think any other strategy has a prayer in a state that is this socially liberal. I mean, it is clear to me, that the out-of-staters posting here have NOOOOOOO CLUUUUUUUUE about it.

Unfortunately, one cannot be a fiscal Conservative and a social Liberal at the same time. Those are mutually-exclusive goals; especially in California. If one is to to be Conservative in this state, it's really an all-or-nothing deal. And with the Liberals dominating every aspect thanks entirely to Conservative cowardice, things are only going to get worse.

You get it. Rush tells a story about Cranston`s last election. The R`s nominated a Congressman Swaw ( I can`t remember his name, sorry) that wasn`t PROLIFE. The hard right stayed home, Cranston won, he helped destroy Bork, and was a member of the Keating five. We stuck to our guns and the Rats won another election.
Please stop and think before you go public giving ammo to our enemies.
Support GWB and Arnold

Very true. The all or nothing crowd is helping to put
us in a hole just as the libs.
With their third party voting they gave us Carter and Clinton.
