The NY Times just wrote about the demise of the CA GOP. It claimed its dramatic loss in voter registration, now just 30% of the state's voters, is due to the fact that the party has run out of ideas popular with the electorate and that it has grown increasingly conservative, out of step with independents who decide elections. Yes, the GOP has declined to insignificant status. It's minority status is now so small it can no longer block any legislation or budget that Gov. Brown and the Dems want. We live in a one party state. The state GOP simply sits in the legislature, relegated merely as silent observers watching in agony at the demolition of its state.

One answer....divide the state into two states. Los Angeles and San Francisco go to Southern Calif. Most of Northern Calif is Republican anyway.
Arnold ain’t saying he’ll be back, and no one wants him. Funny how things change. Remember when the RINOs were telling conservatives that Arnold and California were the example for how the Republican Party should go?
More conservatives are the answer, not more milk toast moderates, who go along to get along. (Arnold)
The demise of the Republican party in California simply means Americans have been out bred by aliens. California’s fate merely points to the method by which America is being conquered by the Third World.
And kalifornistan will never, ever, never divide into two separate states. There's too much money to be stolen by the pigs in Sacramento for them to allow that to happen.
In the future, students will study the resulting demise of a once-great state when it willingly adopted a political system known as “ONE PARTY RULE”.
It has worked so very well everywhere it’s been tried.
California has two problems, those flocking IN and those who are sadly ESCAPING. The “takers” and the “makers”
The problem dooming California is that even if 32 is passed, enterprising judges will be easily found to get it declared unconstitutional...as they have all of the other good propositions that have been passed by the voters over the years.
An aside...this is exactly what the entire nation has in front of it should Obama get a second term. The country will be unrecognizable and in the iron grip of the Marxist/Fascists for at least generations.
2003 was the end of the CAGoP. It failed to deliver and now we all pay thru the nose and pocketbooks for Rinos on steroids who spent like drunken DemocRats and partied with them while the state burned.
It will be voided by ONE judge.
California will only be mitigated by producers moving their treasure, income, production and maybe even themselves out of state.
Bingo. White Christian America is dying. We are being overrun with third world savages and if the demographic trend continues, the hard working, patriotic people that made this country great will be a minority within a few decades. When that happens, the country is finished. Of course, we might not even last long enough to let the illegal alien hordes tear us apart. We seem to be bent on our own self destruction.
My wife and I left in 1997 to follow our careers as opportunities disappeared in California. Since then, the state's extreme leftist politics and liberal judicial system overturning the rare conservative proposition victories have combined to kill whatever desire we might have had to return.
Huh!? HARD LEFT california passed stuff like the Prop 187 and Prop 8 and conservatives are going extinct?
Could be. All the sane conservatives are moving to TX and AZ. It will really get interesting when there are no more producers and the number of public parasites keeps growing.
I don’t believe that will ever happen. Especially when looking at all the illegals in California and no voter ID. They will stuff the ballot box. It’s a welfare state and it won’t change as long as we keep handing out money and medical services to illegals.
The Protestant vote is dead in California.
I remember some of us pointing that out here 10 years ago -- demographics is destiny. Uncontrolled illegal immigration will have the same result across the entire U.S. Many here are getting so much enjoyment out of hating CA they don't see what's happening in their own back yards.
I totally agree with you.
