Why are both the RINO's and Demoncrats both so against Simon? Is he not a yes man?

[Ann Archy]

Isnt it against the LAW to elease someone's tax records??

Davis has NO chance of winning UNLESS they DESTROY Simon.

"What has the GOP spooked is the July 31 verdict by a California jury that found a company with ties to the Simon family guilty of fraud. Predictably, the story received saturation coverage by state media and has been featured prominently in every national report on Simon's bid to retake the Golden State for the GOP - not to mention a tsunami of Davis TV ads

I read this when it came out. The man was a drug dealer I believe, and they fired him. Big DEAL! Unlike some who not only count them as friends but pardon them when they get caught, I might add. This is going to destroy Simon?

I didn't know about the polls that show Simon trending up, that is good news, because we already know is that Davis cannot help but have further damaging reports of some new scandal.

Why the pessimism?

Let's start with, "this thread only has 9 posts."


But seriously, Simon and Davis are both seen as crooks by most Californians.

We're already holding our noses.

Thank God the media people only get one vote! Just think we still get to choose. What a great country.

dump all lefties.

Still, the good news didn't do much to quell critics, who inexplicably maintain that Simon doesn't have a prayer. Here's how the San Francisco Chronicle's Debra Saunders reacted after the Republican's lead was reported in the Washington Times.

"Bill Simon should just give up. He's a lousy candidate. He should admit it, bow out of the race, then endorse a good Republican - Secretary of State Bill Jones - who has a shot at beating the otherwise-vulnerable Gray Davis." As what, a write-in candidate? The primary's been held, and the field is set, for better or worse. As usual, liberals think you can ignore the law and invent the rules on the fly.

see to it that the Justice Department does its job by opening a criminal probe into the suspicious release of Simon's tax files.

Ashcroft, Bush et al have no interest at all, judging by their actions, in dealing with government corruption.

Too bad, as honest government ought to be a top priority.

Ashcroft, particularly, is a sanctimonious fraud.

May he win by a landslide. ~Pray~

EXCELLENT analysis and article!

Simon Bump!

[Nephi]

In an effort to reach out to Democrats in the spirit of bi-partisanship and to save his political capital for more pressing globalist needs and to avoid any chance of being tied to California/Enron enery issues, Bush has indicated a willingness to endorse the Democrat incumbent, Gray Davis for Governor of California. </sarcasm off...for now>

"Conservative" candidate Simon recently issued his policy regarding oil drilling in California. He says he will stop all future drilling, specifically coastal drilling.

Disregarding for the moment that Simon has been deeply involved in financing this drilling in the past, and disregarding the fact that California presently produces roughly 20% of US domestic oil and yet still has to import oil to its gasoline refineries, ...

How is it anything but daft to propose the curtailment of future oil drilling in California in the wake of 9/11 and the obvious build up to a war with Iraq??

How is this anything but an enviro-wacko leftwing policy that will destroy any hope of American energy independence from Middle-East oil?
