Chuck DeVore on Palin Endorsement of Carly Fiorina (Get the FACTS, you Sybliistas)
UN Coverage ^

Posted on 05/07/2010 10:02:26 PM PDT by pissant
I just finished strong in a one hour debate with Tom Campbell and Carly Fiorina (to be broadcast Sunday morning well send you the media analysis when it comes in).
But before I went to bed tonight I wanted to take a moment to type out some of my thoughts on the days news and provide you with an update on my campaign.
If you didnt hear, Sarah Palin posted a Facebook message earlier today about the California Republican primary.
She bashed Tom Campbell.
She tried to ignore me.
And she announced her support of Carly Fiorina.
She called Fiorina a commonsense conservative and said Fiorina is the only conservative in the race who can beat Barbara Boxer.
I like Sarah Palin. I think highly of her. But she got this dead wrong.
Carly Fiornia is NOT a conservative.
And she is certainly NOT the only candidate in the race who can beat Barbara Boxer.
Let me address each of those issues with some cold, hard facts.
Is Carly Fiorina a conservative?
* She supported the Wall Street bailouts.
* She supported Cap and Trade.
* She supported the confirmation of Sonia Sotomayer.
* She has criticized the new Arizona immigration law.
* Before she was fired as the CEO of Hewlett-Packard, she allowed the company to sell technology to Iran.
* And last year when liberal Democrats and moderate Republicans were trying to push through a massive tax increase in a California referendum, Carly Fiorina had no comment.
I call her a John McCain Republican she talks the talk from time to time and says shes a conservative but she has a never with us when it counts record just like McCain.
Dont get me wrong, if a liberal Republican like Tom Campbell or a moderate Republican like Carly Fiorina win the primary instead of me, I will support them against Barbara Boxer.
But theres no need to make a compromise like that.
This is not a primary election where electability needs to be a factor.
Again, let me offer the cold hard facts.
Heres the most recent polling numbers from the independent Rasmussen poll.
* Fiorina 38% Boxer 42%
* DeVore 39% Boxer 42%
* Campbell 41% Boxer 43%
The margin of error in the poll was 4.5%.
That means Fiornia is statistically tied with Boxer.
So am I (actually one point better than Fiorina).
And so is Tom Campbell.
There is literally no difference at all in how we are performing against Boxer.
The fact is Boxer has been mired in the mid-to-low 40s for more than a year.
Whether its her abrasive politics, her leading role in Cap and Trade, the way California Democrats have run the state into the ground, the way Washington Democrats are running the country into the ground, the Can you call me Senator? episode, or something else, the fact is Barbara Boxer is going to have a very difficult time winning re-election this year.
So the choice before the California primary voters isnt who can beat Boxer
its which Republican candidate best represents your values.
* Is it Tom Campbell, the Nelson Rockefeller Republican who supported the largest tax increase in history at the state level, a 32-cent gas tax increase, and is liberal on social issues? * Is it Carly Fiorina, the John McCain Republican who claims she is a conservative but has a never with us when it counts record of support for the bailouts, for cap and trade, and for the confirmation of liberal Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor? * Or is it me, Chuck DeVore, a Ronald Reagan Republican who has a proven, conservative record on taxes, on spending, on social issues, and on defense?
I believe its vitally important to California and Americas future that we get Barbara Boxer out of the Senate
but I also believe its just as important we replace her with a true conservative who will faithfully hold strong to the Founding Fathers vision of a limited government
My record is clear.
I have a proven voting record in the California State Assembly that has earned me several Legislator of the Year awards from conservative organizations.
I was a Reagan White House appointee in the Pentagon and Im a Lt. Col. in the U.S. Army Reserve.
And I was against the bailouts, against cap and trade, and against the confirmation of Sonia Sotomayer. I support the Arizona immigration law. And when California Republican moderates tried to raise taxes I resigned my leadership position in protest.
My record has earned me support from conservatives like:
*** Senator Jim DeMints Senate Conservative Fund *** Governor Mike Huckabees HuckPAC *** Congressman Tom McClintock (R-CA) *** Congressman Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) *** Congressman Jeff Flake (R-AZ) *** The Tea Party Express *** Citizens United PAC *** Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association PAC *** And more than 60% of Californias Republican elected officials.
Media commentators Glenn Beck, George Will, Andrew Breitbart, and Mark Levin have all identified me as the true conservative candidate in this race.
Im not going to lie to you, I would have liked Sarah Palins endorsement, too (and I look forward to getting it after I win the primary).
But the support I most need and want is yours.
If you live in California, I need your vote on June 8th.
And no matter where you live, I urgently need your immediate financial support.
Based on the Facebook and Twitter comments, it seems a lot of Sarahs supporters werent very happy about her decision to support Carly.
To those of you who are looking for a strong, tried-and-true conservative who can win in November, I invite you to join my team right now.
I need your help.
Click this link right now to make a donation and help me win this primary. Any amount you can give, even if its just $5, will make an immediate difference.
I am the REAL conservative who can win this primary and defeat Barbara Boxer.
But I cant do it by myself.
I need the help of conservatives like you. And I need it right now.
Join my team today and together we can put this country back on track. It only takes a minute to make a donation. But the impact could last a lifetime.
So please dont delay. Click this link right now and help me, the Ronald Reagan Conservative, win the Republican primary.
All the best,
Chuck DeVore

I agree. She has every right to pick and choose. My beef here is with her sycophants that all of the sudden declare DeVore to be an idiot and non-conservative and Gnarly as the cat’s meow. It’s the sickening stench of ARnold-McClintock all over again. We’ve learned nothing.

Went to a SD Republican dinner last night. Some of those attending who spoke were: Duncan D. Hunter, Darrell Issa, Gunny Pop' and Roger Hedgecock. They are not supporting DeVore. These are some of the influential Repubs in CA and they see that Fiorina is the chance to take out BoxerWow, what?
Did you say that Duncan Hunter and Roger Hegecock are supporting Fiorina over DeVore?
Please elaborate.
Thanks.

Thank you for posting this, pissant. When voters start voting for the best conservative candidate, instead of the flash, we’ll get conservative representatives. It’s not rocket science.

What’s wrong with the Republican party? They’ll let anyone take their name and run for office, as long as they can ‘win’ and will play for Goldman Sachs once in office. Fiorina is clearly one of those, as is Meg Whitman. Campbell’s shady background with middle eastern money makes him an appalling choice as well.
You can call names all you want, but conservatives know that voting on principle is right. It is the only way you can get principled candidates elected to office.

People so stuck up on Devore they act like thin-skinned drones?To be fair, I frequently see this with many Palin supporters as well.

We must stand on principle and support Conservatives, unless they are our "friends"....right?
DeVore is setting the record straight, good for him.

You don't understand the difference. For one thing the Governor's race is between 2 people, there is no pressure to have to vote for anyone other than Poizner. The Senate race is between three people, with 2 of them splitting the conservative vote against a truly radical leftist, decisions have to made, or the leftist waltzes into the win.
Fiorina is merely a last minute endorsement for Palin, weeks before the final vote, after seeing that Devore was not going to beat the pro abortion Campbell.
Romney has orchestrated Whitman's entire entry into the California Governor's race, Romney even bought a home here to operate out of, he is running a master plan, not making a simple endorsement.
Tom McClintock has endorsed Poizner. Poizner is seen as a less pro abortion than Whitman, and generally less liberal.
"But Whitman's claim earned the ire of the California Pro-Life Council, which called her candidacy "unacceptable to millions of California Pro-Life voters. Whitman's position that there should be no limitations on taxpayer funding of abortion is clear repudiation of Ronald Reagan's commitment to the value of individual human lives."

Who is Hunter endorsing? Can't find his name at DeVore's web site.
By the way, your sophomoric use of the term "Sybil" confirms what a ignorant, mental midget you indeed are.

Good report!
This wasn’t DeVore’s first melt down.
There is also a little problem and being invesigated
due to using CA txpayer money to pay some of his staf.
Seeing youtubes of him speak, Boxer would walk all over him.
An assemblyman with no international experience or background is not Senatior material.
His ROTC Army rank did not = anytime in combat, seemed to miss that.

What a grotesque slander of a solid conservative patriot, all to run interference for princess Sybil’s bad judgment. Just like the frickin morons here telling us JD Hayworth is no conservative because he knew Abramhoff and only had a 98 ACU rating.

You can’t even be an adult and admit Devore is flawed and can never win against Boxer especially after his latest melt down.
When some of the most Conservative Congressmen and others won’t support him, that is telling.
