"I think the Simon campaign is officially toast."

I'm afraid you're right. A damn shame, too.

I don't think near as many would have voted for him in the primary had they known his inability to raise cash or campaign.
But there is time to pay for new ballots, have him step down and bring in Clint Eastwood!

The sad fact is you have the worst Govenor in California and the pwople mostly hate him and the Republican party here still can't put a horse in the race that is half way capable of winning.

Well don't blame Bush. He and his advisors must/may have known enough to anticipate at least some of the difficulties Simon has brought upon himself. Big money Republican sources must also know, or else Simon would have enough money.

Simon has surrounded himself with the "can't shoot straight" quality of advisors. This means he isn't a guy who is smart enough to win, as we are witnessing.

I recall a rule from a college business professor: "A manager can delegate authority, but cannot delegate responsibility."

Talk of a write-in or substitute candidate offer little to no chance for success.
