I don't want to step on any toes here, and I hope I am wrong about this, but reality is reality.
Kalifornia is beyond any hope. Kalifornia is one of the most liberal states in the nation, and will likely remain so. A conservative does not have a chance of winning the state.
We would be much better served if the few conservatives left in Kalifornia left the liberals to wallow in their waste and left for greener pastures.
Kalifornia is going to be and stay solidly democratic for the forseeable future.
I know that there are still conservatives in Kalifornia who refuse to believe reality. They think that they can change it's course, but there is a point of no return.
The Conservatives will say that It has been only a few years since Kalifornia has had a Republican Gov. problem is, Kalifornia has been invaded by hordes of liberals, and has bred countless more upon it's shores.
It is true that from 1967-1975, 1983-1999 Republicans controlled the Gov. Mansion in Kalifornia.
But it is also true that Kalifornia has become more and more democratic and more and more liberal during that time. Kalifornia was at one time, one of the Most Republican States in the Nation.
From 1952 until 1988 California only went democratic in one Presidential Election. Then from 1992 to Present Kalifornia went democratic every single election, by larger and larger margins. Kalifornia was one of Klintoon and Gore's strongest States.
Kalifornia isn't alone in this phenomina. Vermont went Republican in every Presidential Election in the 20th Century Save for 1964 until 1992. From 1992 onward Vermont has become increasingly liberal and more and more democratic.
This is due in large part to the migration of the liberal New Yorkers who after destroying their state, like a cancer, seep into others seeking what they can destroy.
Kalifornia is a lost cause.
If you really want to change the tide of America, contribute to a GOP Senate Campaign in a Battleground State like Missouri, South Dakota, Georgia, New Hampshire, North Carolina, and Minnesota.
If we could gain control of the U.S. Senate and get some Conservative Judicial Nominations through, then and only then can we start to cut the weeds of liberalism back.
The majority of the liberal agenda has been imposed on the nation through judicial activist liberal judges. Almost 50% of the Federal Judges on the bench now have been appointed by Klintoon. This is why this election is so Important.
We all saw what happened to Pickering and some of the other Bush Judicial Nominees. These were good judges who were conservative, and the liberals pounced on them like lions.
Forget Kalifornia and help make a difference where you can!
Kalifornia is beyond any hope. Kalifornia is one of the most liberal states in the nation, and will likely remain so. A conservative does not have a chance of winning the state.
How do we know?
The only genuine conservatives to run for statewide office in the past 10 years have been Bruce Herschenson and Dan Lundgren. Both refused to run as bare-knuckled conservatives, and became punching bags for the Democrats.
Pete Wilson is a centrist Republican, but he understood that politics is war, and sounded what conservative themes he shared and refused to lose.
OTH, in the last ten years, California has passed State referendums such as Proposition #187 ( which would have denied State benefits to Illegals), passed a three-strikes law requiring life without parole for violent felons, overturned affirmative action, abolished most of bilingual education, and thwarted the homosexual agenda by preserving the definition of marriage as being one man with one woman.
How liberal is that? Has any other state passed such conservative ballot initiatives?
Republicans who act ashamed of their Party and their principles are the guaranteed losers in California.
You are right here but its not due to a migration of new Yorkers its due to a migration of Hispanics.
This is due in large part to the migration of the liberal New Yorkers who after destroying their state, like a cancer, seep into others seeking what they can destroy. The Left is like that.
I knew a far-left woman who moved from Wisconsin to California. She kept talking about how she loved down-to-earth midwestern values, but her bulletin board at home was covered in Left-Demo activist buttons. She thought the GOP "scary" and loved govt, loved Clinton. Hated Reagan, hated Rush, hated Newt.
Even so, she hated what California had become -- crime, incivility, road rage, even hated the taxes. And so after 17 years in California, she moved to Florida -- where she will no doubt vote for Reno.
What purpose does spelling California with a "K" serve? Just curious.
