I have some fundamentally bad news for the staunch, extreme right wing folks here pushing McClintock. And no one is going to like it.

Ronald Reagan could not be elected in California in 2003.

It isn't the same state it was 30 years ago. It is much much much more liberal. There is nothing we can do about that. It, the liberalism, is a force of nature (demographics and immigration). You can't change in wone election what took 30 years to evolve. You have to court Hispanic communities and sell them on the idea of individualism. That's a process; not an event.

The political slippery slope to liberalism that we are experiencing is a progressive movement that cannot be altered is what you are saying?

Great. Tell us all how that selling job is supposed to be done by a conservative when the liberals (and some Republicans, like GWB) are telling Mexicans and Central Americans that their prize for making it across the border is every social service they can collectively demand.
