Palin robocalls aimed at boosting Fiorina (BARF)
LA Times ^ | 6/7/10 | Robin Abcarion

Posted on 06/07/2010 9:26:05 PM PDT by pissant

As rumored, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, whose endorsement gave former Hewlett-Packard chief Carly Fiorina a boost in the Republican campaign for the U.S. Senate nomination, gave her some more help Monday: a recorded call that went out to 650,000 likely Republican voters in California, according to Fiorina spokeswoman Julie Soderlund.

Here is what Palin had to say:

“Hi. This is Sarah Palin calling for the Carly for California campaign. I’m calling to ask you to vote for Carly Fiorina, the commonsense conservative running for United States Senate. You know thankfully Carly is not a career politician. She’s a businesswoman who knows from personal experience that when government grows, the private sector shrinks. Carly is the conservative who has the best chance to beat liberal Sen. Barbara Boxer. And she’s running against a liberal Republican who really isn’t much different than Boxer. Come on, help get our country back on track by electing Carly Fiorina to the United States Senate. Please be sure to vote on Tuesday. And thank you so much for your time.”

I loved Palin from the beginning, but not anymore. She’s breaking the one thing that made her special - principles.

I don’t care how many bus trips she made with Carly in 08 or how nice it was for McCain to add her to the ticket, it can’t be about principles AND friendship. Palin sold out.

I hate robo calls you can’t tell the voice on the phone what you really think of them or their candidate. Is it my imagination or did Sarah Palin back off on campaigning with Juan McCain?

According to some AZ freepers, they are still getting bombarded with Palin’s radio ads for McAmnesty

Let me just say - I like Ms. Palin, but I cannot stand robocalls; they drive me up the wall. This is not a good use of your time, Ms. Palin, not a good use of your time.

Yep, she might even push a pathetic RINO or two into the win column.

Carly is the conservative who has the best chance to beat liberal Sen. Barbara Boxer.

Same old crap from our PW* infested CAgop. Only the names change.

*That could stand for Pete Wilson, or whatever you choose. ;-)

From Chuck Devore's wiki bio, he has been running for office since the 1980s. You would have thought all that experience and exposure in California would have resulted in more support and donations.

On the other hand, maybe it is finally time to put all lifetime politicians out to pasture.

Pissant, as much as we might want Chuck Devore to win, he really never had a chance, with or without Sarah's help.

It's my opinion that she took a look at the race, figured this out early and made a choice to get the most conservative possible candidate that could possibly win in the General.

You'll notice she stayed away from Tom Campbell.

Instead of purposefully assuming the worst about Governor Palin, you might try looking at this from a different perspective.

You would think that conservatives wouldn’t pretend that a Jesse Jackson loving, internet tax pushing, global warming believing McCainiac flip flopper is a conservative just because Precious says so.

Wouldn’t it be nice to field the stroingest candidate who can win against Boxer?

Obama and the Dem Party are going to pour in millions in cash, plus faud, deceit and unions to keep Boxer in her seat.

IMO Carly, with all her inperfections, is the stronger candidate who can win against Boxer. Anyone who argues that there is no difference between Boxer and Carly is insane.

Boxer is Obama in a skirt. Far left wing commie.

Many signs for DeVore popped up along the road in the last week or so.

Guess what? Whoever approved the design wasn’t a very skilled operative. They are somewhere between difficult and impossible to read.

Shades of earthtones, with the name DeVore NOT standing out, at all. This is an inexcusable mistake. Overall his campaign has been weak.
