Four years ago the California GOP establishment foisted Neel Kashkari on us as the candidate for Governor after savaging Tea Party favorite Tim Donnelly.
Neel Kashkari supports abortion and same sex marriage. He believes in man-made global warming and supports laws limiting greenhouse gas emissions. Jeb Bush is one of his Republican heroes. He says he voted for Obama twice.
THAT is the establishment GOP’s idea of what California Republicans ought to support.
This election, the colorless, bland, low-energy John Cox was the candidate for Governor. He was non-controversial, invisible, and inspired no one.
One big problem in California is that the establishment GOP power brokers are gutless, half-baked Democrat wannabes who the remaining Republican voters in this state despise. They inspire no one. Even Democrats who want an alternative hold them in contempt.
A social conservative cannot win California.
Period.
This is not the 1980s and 1990s.
You have to run Cox-like candidates and they need to have a GOOD message to beat the Newsoms of the world.
CA will implode and a Republican will win again. Soon.
