GREAT news. It's really sad, though, that we had to have a Democrat governor in the first place. The rise in crime is real ... and it's not just car thefts (which has the highest increase) ... but VIOLENT crime.

The "education" governor has failed to increase test scores ... the "tough on crime" governor has failed to lower crime rates ... this governor doesn't know the meaning of the phrase "the buck stops here" unless it has a picture of Andrew Jackson!

Dump Davis! GO SIMON!

Is it really great news?

I mean, yes, it is great to get an endorsement, but how much weight does this carry in California?

California is not seen as the state that respects law enforcement. I mean from the Marxists in the Bay Area to the illegals coming across the border in San Diego (many of which, somehow, seem to be able to vote for DemocRATs?), it doesn't seem that there is a healthy respect for these folks.

I am not a Californian and I am not being a contrarian or trying to put down the law enforcement officers of the state; rather, I really wonder how much weight this endorsement really will carry inside the state?

Please don't misunderstand, I wish it did, but I get the impression that it doesn't.
