Obama has big edge in California, poll shows
Los Angeles Times ^ | May 29, 2012 | Cathleen Decker

Posted on 05/29/2012 8:58:25 AM PDT by ConservativeStatement

No need to slick, you did that all by yourself.

Once again, read what is being responded to, before commenting and making a fool of yourself. And if your only goal was to make a cleaver quip, you failed there too.

You seem angry junior.

Try and cheer up.

And be sure to read prior to commenting next time. It always helps!

You call someone “slick” and “junior” and expect them not to be angry?

You have false expectations...maybe one of many deep seated issues it seems.

Ya pop off with pitiful condescending comments, which was your first response to me in #77, and then ya get all offended and angry when your told ya didn't bother to read the context of what it was directed at and in response to?

Grow a thicker hide slick, or better yet, try reading prior to commenting. It'll save ya a lot of grief.

Enough to know it sucks. In fact, the last time I was in New Jersey, I couldn't help but notice how old, gloomy and nasty everything looked as the frigid wind blew brown snow sideways over toll roads..Even the air stunk...

You asked.

No one ever used such sugar coated terms when I entered, it was always something a bit more graphic than “numbnuts”. I’d expect that from a school PE teacher.

Oh and you’re right, the winter, the air, toll roads, and the summers...The last time I was in New Jersey in summer, it was so humid, it was like being on the surface of Venus, or being warped in big steamed tamale.

Take care!

No, the main reason George H Bush couldn’t win California today is the same reason even Reagan couldn’t win his home state today either; demographics.

When Bush won California in 1988 the state’s electorate was still overwhelmingly white. Now the state is much less white, and the white population that remains is not all that conservative. If white Californians voted like white Texans, then the GOP would still be a contender for important statewide races.

The fast growing Hispanic and Asian communities in California (and pretty much in every other state) are solidly Democratic, and there is no reason to expect that to change. There’s really no reason to even hope it will change.

California is lost. Since Pete Wilson’s victory in 1994, the GOP hasn’t won a single important statewide race outside of the anomalous Schwarzenegger elections. Since 1994, in the Presidential, Senatorial, and Gubernatorial races, the GOP has put up ‘moderates’ and alleged conservatives, and they’ve all gone down to defeat, even in pro-GOP years like 2010 against the unpopular, horrible Boxer. As I’ve heard others here say, the most we could hope for is if things get so bad that maybe Californians will elect a Republican governor to balance their nutcase legislature, but we can forget carrying the state for POTUS or even electing a decent Senator.
