McClintock for Senator! Knock off boxer in '04. With AS's help as gov. we could get a good conservative in the senate from CA.

Yeah, I hear this all the time but I will guarantee you right now it will never happen.

When the time comes to nominate a candidate for senate the party will put up another "moderate" republican and the same "moderate" elements here & elsewhere will be providing the same "common sense" reasons why we shouldn't throw our votes away on TM.

Sooner or later the line must be drawn.

Ditto

They have never supported Tom and never will. I think they would rather have Boxer win then get behind a Republican that upholds the published planks of the party.

I am with you on your comments in post #38. Tom is already a dead man walking in the eyes of these people, and has been for many years. He never will get their support.

They could at least be honest about it.

We voted Simon over Riordan. I think TM would get the support. (He would have mine) Boxer can be beaten.

Problem is even if a moderate gets nominated then the conservatives vote AIP or Libertarian.

Then the moderates vote Libertarian or Democratic when a conservative is nominated. Its a very ugly cycle.
