Saw the adds last night by Davis. Boy, I sure hope Simon can win over this idiot. But I have to tell you.. even as I sat there and heard the adds say how Simon made his money off his Dad..and how Simon and ruined a company, and how it had failed miserably.. I thought, no matter what.. I still would never be able to vote for someone as incompetent as Davis.

Personally I think the wrong person got the Rep. Nomination. The best person, the one who was best qualified to handle this mess was Jones!!

In fact, I was thinking how cool it would be to have the first Governor voted in by write in ballot, from right here in California. VOTE JONES.. it is the only thing that makes sense!!!

Remember.. the only reason Jones didn't get the Republican nod..is because he backed McCain.

Here was the most qualified, the best choice, the most appealing, and because he backed McCain we don't back him.

Simon is going to have a hard time once the Davis spin machine gets going, because there are a TON of issues he has to explain. Like why he has never voted in a Republican Primary!! Like the failed business adventures he has. Just a lot of things.

So, If there was ever a BIG well advertised and well done bid for a "write in campaign for Jones"..I would back it!!

Otherwise, I'll vote for the lesser of two evils. Simon!

I don't quite understand your reasoning. Jones is a nice guy but he couldn't win, and it wasn't because of Simon. Jones can't raise money, never has been able to. Jones is 100% behind Simon, and has done several events with him.

Don't believe everything you read. Some of the hits on Simon are valid, others are outright lies (such as Davis' hit ad). Simon is a bright guy with good ideas who is from outside politics (THANK GOD!). I, for one, am tired of career politicians who think they know what's good for everyone, and we'd better just sit back and take it.

Go Simon!
