This is certainly a lot more encouraging than the crepe-hanging stories I've been seeing lately. Whatever you think of Morris' personal life or past affiliations, he generally knows what he's talking about in these matters.

GO SIMON

***

Tom McClintock for CA State Controller

[eureka!]

And the Nathanson letter will not help Grayout either. He is in a world of hurt. Look how shrill South is and the desperation in the presstitutes' stories to depress Republicans--many of whom post on these threads. Simon is going to surprise many. Hehehehe...

This is interesting...

Methinks the media is doing an "Arthur Andersen" with the polling numbers. Dick Morris does have a good idea for how politics is played, and while I don't care for his hired gun approach or his personal character, I'd still listen to him.

Simon has stumbled here and there, much to the delight and wishful thinking of the "I told you so" Riordan contingent around these parts. While perhaps not the ideal candidate, given his inexperience, Simon was the best of the GOP field in the primaries.

I do wish Simon would bang on Davis more for the bonded indebtedness issue. Many Californians have no clue as to the boat anchor of debt that Davis has chained to their future taxes.

[tubebender]

Morris said that Davis "being all over Simon" should be regarded as more of a measure of Simon's strength than his weakness.

I have had this thought more than once during the last few days. I would not be surprised to see Doofus implode as he did with the LA Slimes editioral board a few months ago.

Did you hear that the Feds are going after Dufus on the SUV emissions? :-)

Morris may in fact be correct, but if you consider his actual track record with predictions in the past couple of years, it stinks. The only reason Morris is saying this is because he knows it is the only thing that gets him TV, radio, and newspaper appearances. If Morris was doom and gloom for the Republicans, he would be persona non grata on the conservative media circuit. He doesn't give a sh*t about the candidates, it's all about Dick.

The only problem with the toe-sucker's analysis is that it is the same story he told during the Hillary-Lazio campaign in 2000. And, as I recall Hill was only up about 3 points (like 46-43%) on Lazio in the late summer/early fall going into the infamous (how dare he invade her space) debate. After the debate little Ricky imploded and got smoked by 56-44% on election day, even though polls still showed her up by only 5-7 points on the eve of the election. Gore clobbered GWB in NY state by 60-33% and probably helped Hill sweep in with the 12 point margin.

So, it remains to be seen if Dickie's analysis will be accurate for the Simon-Davis race?

I don't trust Dick Morris that much--he had a rapist for a boss and probably knew about the rape.

But he's been right about A LOT of things lately. He predicted the outcome of the New Jersey election farce EXACTLY.

When HASN'T Dick Morris been wrong?

The 50% rule doesn't apply in CA since third parties usually get upwards of 10% of the vote in statewide races.
