Maybe it is a good time to try to get onto a Republican Central Committee.

Let's get those heads rolling! My eyes have had enough of it.

Dang!!! I was going to post some of that message from Tom Mc but was too busy looking for my pickup. We scored 3 Eureka city council seats, the mayor and our county supervisor. The brain dead DA is hanging by a doobie. Now where did I park that pickup...

Good luck in Santa Cruz county. Sam Farr democrats switched to ‘R’ and ran out the conservative branch years ago. They still have a well funded opposition to anyone who doesn’t act like a RINO.

Your plan may be a good option. As of last week, I was thinking de-registering was a good idea. With the open primaries, I couldn't think of a good reason to be a Republican especially since there were rumblings that our GOP "leaders" would choose "our" candidate around which all pubbies would be urged to coalesce.

Ousting some of those hapless "leaders" would be a good thing.

Hey - I borrowed the truck to go pick up a load of pitchforks.
I didn’t think you’d mind.
I filled it with gas for ya!

Don't know. Given what I've done environmentally, they might listen.

How’s it done? Blocs need to be built prior, no?

"Hapless" is the word all righty. Yeah, but they've got Abel you know. Look what a success he was!

I've not seen it done so I couldn't say. That would certainly make sense.

Anybody know how to oust Nehring? Shut out Pete Wilson? This kinda sounds like John and Ken's "heads on a stick." I think rolling back Parsky's changes he pushed through a decade ago would probably also be a worthwhile objective.

It certainly is worth a try.

the statewide Republican ticket in California imploded and Republicans actually lost a legislative seat in the Assembly. Republicans nationally now hold more state legislative seats than in any year since 1928, except in California were they hold fewer than at any time since 1978!” -- Ouch. That one smarts. The big question now is .. Do the DEms pull the trigger this year or wait a bit and see if the economy picks up before they slap new taxes on everything and everyone.. I've never seen a rat wait for cheese to age.. Brown is trying to play it cool.. We'll see. He may end up smoking cigars as the manure pile ripens.. Heck, I bet his found-late in life leftist liebral wife already does. as to Pete and the rest of the caddy crew at the Ca GoP hdqtrs. ,, I wouldn't worry about replacing them. Maybe bronze 'em.. or sumthin'

Looks like it’s time to stop the “drop off at a polling place” and accept mail-in ballots with the proper time stamp only...

Maybe it is a good time to try to get onto a Republican Central Committee.

Existing my polling place Tuesday, in rural CenCal, I noticed two fellows who obviously didn't belong. One from the tea party movement and the other from SEIU. The tea bagger was wired to a lawyer to contemporaneously report any voter intimidation by the union.

The bagger also offered that the tea party movement had been infiltrating the Fresno County Republican Central Committee. Thus far they had placed two members on the committee, had driven out the RINO chairman and had a clear majority in the audience at public meetings.

They yet lacked the power to drive out the good ole boys on the committee but had a bulls eye painted squarely on the chest of Michael Der Manouel1.

1 Fleischman look alike

According to the elections attorney I talked with last Tuesday, organized, Democrat, voter fraud is absolutely rampant in California. From his prospective the most important elections in California are:

1) California Attorney General
2) California Secretary of State
3) County Elections Superintendents.

These three offices control investigation and prosecution of voter fraud. Voting for others at the polls and fraudulent vote-by-mail may amount to more than 20% of the votes cast in the golden state. Election fraud is organized and pervasive across all counties in California. Both parties are aware and each will do nothing for fear of losing the control when their party is in power. Only the tea bag movement is taking aim at the practice.

Sounds good. I await the "after action" report.

Would that be single action or double? :-)

George Soros is funding an organization in America to get Secretaries of States elected so there will be more close elections decided like that worthless SNL commedian Al Franken to that MN Senate Seat after a long recount mess.

Please go easy on the "teabagger" and "teabag" descriptors as those are pejoritive homo-sexual references and someone is sure to take serious offense at you using those terms when referring to Tea Party Patriots. They haven't had time to form an anti-defemation league.

Whoopie Goldberg calls these super American Citizens by that awful name and nobody even cringes because she is who she is and there's no hope for her. The rest of your observations were right on target and in real time!!! Now!!!

It is just too strange the way the conservative tsunami swept over America until it hit the Sierra to the shore voter fraud wasteland from NV to the Pacific Time Zone!!!

Not to me.

I can stand the heat.

From my perspective, the tea party movement is a reaction to the excesses of liberalism. They are neither patriotic nor noble. They are simply fed up with the erosion of their personal freedoms and I welcome their fever and support their aims.

I wasn’t worried about you and the heat. I mistakenly thought you could use a little more light on avoiding the use of a deliberate insult on these fantastic Americans and their efforts to make our country well again. Oh well...
