Well, actually, since Simon is leading, and Davis is not improving his reputation with his attack ads, it seems to me that things are going on roughly the right course. So articles and Free Republic comments like this truly baffle me.

I might add that I don't think write-in candidates have ever won a major election, so her suggested remedy is likely to throw the election to Davis. However much she may love Bill Jones - who, if my memory serves, has his own severe liabilities - the state is far better off if Simon, even if he's flawed, wins against Davis in November.

Saunders liked Jones in the primary because he had "experience".

Give me a citizen legislator over an "experienced" politician any day. Jones has tons of problems himself, including voting for the largest tax increase in California history. He was a milquetoast candidate.

But Saunders liked him, so this is just petty.
