As a Conservative (I used to call myself a Republican) I have developed an interest in the California 10 race. I have to question if the Republicans had spent the 900K they wasted on New York 23 on the California 10 race, what ROI they might have experienced? I think there is this mindset in the GOP that any “Bay Area” race is unwinnable, but obviously with only a 10 point spread between the candidates that’s probably not the case. Given the dire circumstances California finds itself in today, there almost certainly has to be some feelings among the electorate that what has been is not working!!

We here in Texas, reached that point with the Democrat Party over a decade ago. I live in a city with the highest per capita black population (48%) of the top ten largest Texas cities and 32 percent of the local population are union members, but we have a strong, Conservative Republican Congressman. Here in my home town it’s not about race, or union affilations, which typically vote Democrat…it’s about taxes and freedom!! Texas ranks 38th among the states on tax burden, whereas California ranks 7th. Texas is one of only 9 states that has no state income tax, and we will never have one, because the people won’t stand for it!! Until the people of California get past the allure of living in a “Nanny State” where Government is the solution to all problems, the turmoil will continue. Unfortunately, as long as California keeps sending people like Pelosi and Boxer to Washington, we are all being forced to suffer for the sins of the West Coast mindset!!

Hopefully, the “Conservative” movement now taking place across America will gain a foot hold in California, because the rest of the country has had quite enough of the Pelosi and Boxer pain!!

FN,

It is a referendum on the gullibility of the Republican Kool-aid guzzling herd. It is the GOP bringing in a liberal Democrat — to switch parties, like there is a lick of difference — to win the prize.

Yep, it’s all of that–and a shot across the bow, too! A conservative two-fer.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment.

NY-23 IS NOT a referendum on Obama policies. It is a referendum on the gullibility of the Republican Kool-aid guzzling herd.

It is the GOP bringing in a liberal Democrat — to switch parties, like tere is a lick of difference — to win the prize. Why would they do that? Don’t they have a Republican candidate who meets their stated principles? Apparently not — but their unstated principles must be someone who will cut us in on the taxpayer’s money. And they have found their man.

Now all they need are the barely functioning Republican turnout who will enthusiastically vote for their boy Mao Tse Tung or Joe Stalin so long as their is a (R) after their name.

Unfortunately for the GOP in NY, the Conservative Party candidate has a real shot at upsetting their access to the booty, so ALL potential voter alternatives are removed to pave the way for electing the chosen one.
