So, the Republican supported sales tax on the internet? Pretty weak explanation.

I could never marry a Democrat. Poizner obviously tolerates those he has no sway over who don’t agree with him politically, which means he’ll be a lousy governor with the Democrat legislature in Kalifornia that the brain dead idiot sheeple keep electing.

I hope one of our great Republican candidates will take her out....

And which RINO might that be?

“The state of California year after year has made this decision,” Whitman replied. “So my feeling is that’s a decision that Californians have made and it needs to stand. When I think about federal funding of abortions, that’s quite a different issue and that’s why I’ve said I’m not in favor of taxpayer-funded abortions.”

HUh???? no WONDER we are a messed up Country! Talk about a nonsense answer!!! WAKE UP AMERICA!!!! Let's tell it like it is...this statement sounds like Meg is just trying to appease her audience and voters!! I'm getting sick to my stomach already and we haven't even voted yet!

Yep, there you have it my friends. Whitman thought Boxer would be pro business. And she evidently thought that for years.

How did she explain not voting for decades?

How did she explain large donations to other Democrats?

How did she explain joining MeCain(D)’s campaign team?

Let me guess, if Obama supported no internet taxation while taking our nation down, she’d support him too.

This woman is toast.

She opposes abortions funded by the federal government, but favors them at the state level.

LOL. Somehow I don't think too many will be swayed by this position.

Constitutional originalists are typically pro-life, and progressives believe any mention of state's rights is code for racism.

Everyone in the middle will just be confused.

Both candidates are poor choices.

To make it even harder, The Howard Jarvis tax people (prop 13) just came out against Poizner, while staunch conservatives in California are coming out for him.

They both sound like a couple of RINO's to me. I don't think I can win here. I don't know who to vote for here.

Abortion is bad so the federal government should
not pay for it.

Abortion is a matter of personal choice so the
state should finance abortions for those who
cannot afford to pay.

That’s the kind of sound simple logic that
conservatives always appreciate.

One of the reasons we end up with such lousy candidates in California is because the California Republican Party hacks will only back RINOs and not real conservatives.

This is the reality of how CEOs and others in high places operate. I’ve been shocked myself at who some of my closest allies have donated to. It IS a business decision, and judging from her batting average here, she made excellent calls.

CEOs and other high ranking people may (or may not) have the same strong principles we do, but it’s not unusual for them to feel an obligation to put the interests of their companies first. So they support the key legislators that serve on committees important to their companies.

I cant read much into this. It’s just the way the game is played.
