I haven't found any red flags with respect to Roach. I noticed that FlashReport failed to include anything about his stance on immigration which I would be interested in. The other part of Fleishman's write-up that caught my eye was his implication that Roach could split the conservative vote (with Morrow and Kaloogian), thereby pushing Bilbray into the lead. That would NOT be good news, IMO.
An interesting race, nonetheless.
Illegal Immigration and National Security
The world changed on September 11, 2001. Our borders must be strengthened to protect ourselves and our national security against economic and terrorist threats. Illegal immigration damages the economic progress and efforts of those millions of legal immigrants. The heavy burden that our local and state governments carry must be shifted to the federal government.
Fine, but pretty light on substance.

This is the kind of thing that always sends up a red flag.
Does Roach have any connection whatsoever to Issa?
