Dislike?!

Hate might not be too strong a word.

(Hate crime?)

[Norman Conquest]

If Simon loses, proof that principled conservatives hold "unelectable, right-wing, extremist" views. If Simon wins, proof that the electorate's hatred for Davis made them vote against their "real" beliefs.

Press bias makes me puke.

Is "Renewing the California Dream" Simon's theme? As a person who is actively working on 2 campaings, I can't tell you how catchy and awesome that it is.

In the 2000 election Ashcroft ran on a theme called "Missouri Values" which was highly popular here in the midwest and the state where he had a 10% lead before Mel Carnahan died. Literally every candidate in the state has copied/cannibalized this motto from Congressmen down to the local mayors. Hell, even people across state lines have copied it like "Kansas Values".

What does it mean? I live in New Jersey and remember Pete Dawkins, the Republican Golden Boy, who ran for the Senate about 20 years ago. The Democrats creamed him with a clip of him saying how much he loved "our beautiful Garden State." At what point do the voters see this stuff as pandering, corny and shallow?

Ah yes, Hollywood couldn't have cast a more creepy character in California's starring roll.

Gray Davis:
...as popular as Frank Burns
...as suave as Barney Fife
...as charming as 'Newman'
...as trustworthy as Eddie Haskell

South has a long way to go to get people to poke their chads for Governor Dufus.

Yes, it is. Check out his website at: Simon For Governor

FreeRepublic is a good antidote though, isn't it?

From 'pencil neck' to 'smarmy pencil neck'--The evolution of Grey Davis as governor, IMHO.

[d14truth]

Gray Davis no lights
A pretty price did he pay
Governor no more.

[NormsRevenge]

Thanks D14

I am all for a Simonized version of the old Burma Shave signs

Creative Folks .. Have at it!

How about: If Simon wins, proof that far more people are willing to vote for a conservative than the establishment folks would like to admit.

He won't have to. All he has to do is what liberals do best: lie, accuse, demonize. And on election day, stuff the ballot box with five times the number of registered voters in the state of California (not to mention the illegal voting block) and you've got a landslide for Davis.

Media lead-in on election night: Victory over hate. Davis defeats Simon.

Pre-election bombshell: A Bill Simon love-child surfaces from a liaison (he never had) from the wild years of his youth.

Can you say Jesse Jackson?

Said Davis attack dog Garry South: "I guarantee you, by the time we're done with this guy, there are going to be a lot of people who don't like Bill Simon," he told Marinucci.

"It doesn't matter what a nice smile he has, or what a nice wife or how many sisters he has. That does not tell the voters where he stands on the issues. . . . Bill Simon is an unelectable extremist."

Just the opening salvo in yet another Rat down-and-dirty campaign. They're revving up the smear machine, and once it gets rolling, I don't think anything will stop it. I hope I'm wrong, but, while Californians may say they don't like Grayman, I think they'll still vote for him in greater numbers than Simon. The Rats will just whip out their magic talisman, the A-word (abortion). Remember, we're talking here about the state that elects FineSwine and Brainless Boxer in election after election. I know, I know, its the Land of Reagan, but that was a long time ago (politically speaking) and those who hold to the enduring values of RWR have been swamped by libs and immigrants. The demographics just aren't there. Like I said, I hope I'm wrong...:-(

The press will run these articles until the summer, and then they will heap praise on him for managing the next power crisis by saying it would be worse without his leadership. By July, the mud campaign against Simon will commence, and the press will say they are balanced because of the articles they ran this spring.

[DB]

Yep, I think you're right.

Pete Dawkins<

Now there's a blast from the past. What ever happened to Pete?
