Former Hewlett-Packard Chief Executive Carly Fiorina will be the Republican Party nominee in the November race against Democratic incumbent U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer.

Fiorina was the top vote-getter in Tuesday's primary election in a Republican field that included former Rep. Tom Campbell and conservative Assemblyman Chuck DeVore (R-Irvine). ..............."

Whoever wins in November it’s a lose for CA.

FioRINO is better than the witch currently in office, but... that’s not saying much.

That’s a great picture. If it had a victorious rhino next to the elephant it would be perfect.

Just a light-hearted jab at those who have submitted us to her (still off-putting, even though I sympathize with the cause) skinhead profile -- every other post we view.

The effect is almost as jarring and offensive as the ostrich... '-}

Look at the Rino’s as place holders. They are not Dems. They’re just squishy. We can replace them next time if possible. It’s been a long time the dems have been advancing their agenda. We MUST be prepared for a 60 year battle. It won’t be done in 2 or 4 years. Obama accelerated it, so it might be 10 years.

You make no sense.
We didn’t want Campbell to win, and he didn’t.
So what’s the harm in DeVore staying in?

What we really wanted was DeVore to win.
DeVore dropping out wouldn’t have helped that, now, would it?

Thanks, some need a serious reality check. We’re not going to win them all, some will be devastating, others will be ‘acceptable’, some will be victories. Keep on fighting. We can’t let Dems win.

You have your own party? How cute.

Let me know when you can get half of one percent in any important election.

LOL

No executive has a right to a profit, either. Especially not by throwing their own countrymen and country overboard.

Barbara Boxer and her ilk are the ones who have been destroying businesses in this country, throwing their country and countrymen overboard. If one wants to keep the people in this country employed and if one wants what is best for this country then electing politicians who believe that we should make this country more business friendly is the way to go.

Simple, commonsense, a.k.a conservatism.

I said a dozen times I would vote for DeVore, watch Fiorina kick his ass, and then vote for Fiorina against Boxer.

How many people right down to Jim Rob here acted like Devore had more than a snowball’s chance in hell? I called this a month ago with half a brain tied behind my back.

We need rich conservatives running. Not poor ones. I should have bet this race in Vegas.

You guess?

This is no longer about Republican representation for California in the Senate. This is about repealing Obamacare. Having Fiorina in the Senate is one vote closer to Republican Senate Majority, repealing Obamacare, stopping amnesty for illegals, stopping cap and tax, control over the SCOTUS pick process.

This is for all the marbles, implications WAY beyond California. I hate RINOs too, but we need as many “R”s in the Senate as possible. 61 is not too many.

WE MUST OVERTURN OBAMACARE.
