Charlie Brown concedes to McClintock
Ex-Sen. Tom McClintock had already declared victory as northern California's newest congressman, but Democratic opponent Charlie Brown made it official today with a phone call to the Thousand Oaks Republican.
Brown shared the news in an e-mail to supporters. "So a short time ago, I called Senator Tom McClintock to congratulate him on a hard fought victory, and to wish him well in Congress," he wrote.
To his supporters, Brown said, "I can only offer my deepest gratitude -- for your generosity of time and resources, and your unwavering energy and encouragement. Together, we have transformed the 4th District, and lifted this campaign higher and farther than anyone thought possible."

You’ve nailed it - McClintock on substance is second to none. He’s just not “TV-friendly” like Arnold. And look how well the Governator turned out for us!
Grr...
Whew! Close one!
WTG Tom.
...Now, if someone could just send that Franken character back to the clown locker...
Thanks for all the info. I knew you had my memory stored for me...thanks!! LOL
What a great poster to have. A trip to Michaels or Aaron Brothers is in order.
You betcha! I agree with Seadogbytes:
This was undoubtedly the highpoint of the 2008 election season.
I beg to differ too. He looks like a no nonsense, no bullshit realist. I love the guy. I don’t want slick, charisma, charm, or schmooz. I want a finance guy who knows what the F is going on and how to fix it. And McClintock is that.
About time.
Save it for when he runs for President!
