This is a great quote from David Horowitz. I think it describes the California situation.

"Even if a Republican candidate like Tom McClintock or Bill Simon could win the plurality to become governor, which they can't, their administration would be a disaster -- for them, for Republicans and for their conservative cause. If conservatives want to make California a conservative state they need to lay a lot more groundwork for that to be possible."

Yep, conservatives get elected when the voters are conservative and they elect a conservative to represent their views. Anyone who'd suggest California's voters (as a group) are conservative are on crack. Californians are moderate-to-liberal, so moderates-to-liberals get elected.

Electing a conservative as governor would be part of that groundwork.

AFUTUTEGOVERNOR WROTE: "If conservatives want to make California a conservative state they need to lay a lot more groundwork for that to be possible."

You are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!

It took Texas more than 100 YEARS to go from being dominated by RATS to being run by CONSERVATIVES!!!

Now, Texas is fighting the RATS to have a representative number of U.S. House reps reflecting the now-CONSERVATIVE makeup of the voting population. First, the RAT State Reps RAN to Oklahoma, and now the RAT State Senators have RUN to New Mexico...all to EVADE their DUTY to vote.
