No, I want to know what the CA. G.O.P. tent polls are made of - and if they are what is currently published - then why aren't they sticking with them.

Wrong answer. California isn't electing tent poles or the CA G.O.P. to sit in the governor's mansion. They're choosing a person. If you want to know the views of that person, you can read the paper. You don't need to hide behind some bogus call for the GOP platform.

Avoiding my question and the point of the article.

The reality is the CA G.O.P. wants to modify its planks and doesn't have the guts to tell its constituency. Otherwise it would be supporting Tom instead of opposing him. The same scenario is being played out in AZ and I believe PA.
