We must make sure that, when California hits bottom, it hits hard! No federal help! After all, what can the Californiacs do? Vote Democrat?

I don’t know, sounds like a possibility to me but I’m not a lawyer.

All I know is if I had the kind of Money Whitman has and just spent a quarter bil, I would be willing to spend several mil more to take Alred to task.

“The point was that Meg Whitman was a liberal that ran on a pro-abortion, anti-gun platform.”

So are you suggesting that Meg lost because she leaned left on these two issues? That was inconsequential. Did you read the posted article, the theme of which was about a state stuck on stupid that once again elected Governor Moonbeam, the same politican who failed them before and left a path of economic destruction in his wake? Kalifornia is a lost cause.

What I keep reading is your defense of Meg Whitman, you seem unbothered by her platform, or her politics, she was the wrong person to lead the GOP efforts in California with her 150 million dollar campaign.

She lost, because she never could be bothered to vote, which is an American citizen’s sacred trust.

She’s a globalist, so voting never mattered to her, until she decided that being governor would be good for her pocketbook.

No conservative can support a candidate like that.

“What I keep reading is your defense of Meg Whitman”

Evidently you’re not reading because you didn’t bother to answer the questions in the post you responded to. Bye.

As one that refused to vote for Whitman, I think that she was the wrong person to lead the GOP efforts in California with her 150 million dollar campaign.

It removed the entire Republican brand, having the state leader run on a pro-abortion, anti-gun platform.
