Logic is not your strong suit.
This is a primary election, not the general election. What matters is how Devore polls against Campbell, and that he barely does at all, Devore at best, is hitting 14%, he is out of the race.
Campbell and Fiorina have about a 2 point difference against Boxer, big deal.
Logically Palin should be supporting Carley Fiorina over the radically leftist, Tom Campbell.
Tom has a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Chicago. His faculty advisor was Milton Friedman. Prior to that, Tom had obtained his B.A. and M.A. degrees in economics from the University of Chicago, on the same day in 1973. He then entered Harvard Law School where he served on the Harvard Law Review Board of Editors. He graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard Law in 1976. After law school, Tom served as law clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Byron White. Thereafter, Tom returned to the University of Chicago for his economics doctorate, received in 1980. His free market economics training cemented a life-long commitment to limited government and greater individual liberty.
In 1978, Tom married Susanne, his bride of now 31 years. From 1980-1981, Tom was a White House Fellow in the Office of the Chief of Staff. He then served in the Reagan Administration as Director of the Bureau of Competition, at the Federal Trade Commission from 1981 to 1983.
In 1983, Tom was offered a professorship at Stanford Law School. Tom received full tenure in 1987 at the age of 34. At Stanford, Toms classes included antitrust, international trade law, corporate law, and constitutional law, with a particular emphasis on the application of economics to legal problems. At Stanford, Susanne continued her life-long interest in Russia, becoming fluent in Russian, and managing tours to the then Soviet Union. In 1992, Berkeleys Center for Research in Management hired Susanne to help establish a business school in St. Petersburg, Russia. She was the Executive Director of that program for 16 years.
In 1988, Tom again entered public service. Tom served as a United States Congressman for five terms representing districts in the Silicon Valley. He was also a California State Senator, and the Director of Finance for the State of California. In Congress, Tom served on the Judiciary Committee, the Joint Economic Committee, the Banking and Housing Committee and the International Relations Committee. He has served since 2004 on the Council of Economic Advisors to California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. During Toms tenure as State Finance Director, Californias budget was balanced with no tax increases, no new borrowing, and no accounting gimmicks.
Tom has received many accolades for his public service. To name a few, the National Taxpayers Union Foundation named Tom the most frugal member of the 102nd Congress, based on net annualized spending reductions in legislation he proposed. The California Journal named Tom the #1 overall State Senator; the State Senates Best Problem-Solver, and the Most Ethical State Senator.
In 2002, Tom was appointed Dean of the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley. As Dean of Haas, Tom stressed the importance of corporate social responsibility and business ethics amid an era of corporate scandals. Under Toms Deanship, the newly formed Center for Responsible Business took firm root, as well as the Center for Non Profit Management. The Haas Schools rankings shot up in every category and every survey during Toms tenure as Dean; most dramatically, reaching the rank of no. 2 in the nation according to the Wall Street Journal in Toms last year.
In 2009, Tom and Susanne took a leave of absence to move to Southern California where he joined the Chapman University School of Law in Orange County as the inaugural Presidential Fellow and Visiting Professor of Law. He also serves as an economic advisor to the international law firm of Gibson Dunn & Crutcher.
