Marriage Group Backs Liberal Dem over Gay Republican
Breitbart ^ | 10/29/2014 | Michelle Moons

Posted on 10/29/2014 9:22:12 PM PDT by Mariner

In a Tuesday email to supporters entitled, "Carl DeMaio Wants You to Vote For Him, But He Totally Disrespects Your Vote," the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) has followed through on a promise to "actively oppose" the candidate the GOP establishment has branded a "New Generation Republican." The email endorses voting for the incumbent Democrat, Scott Peters, even though he is "wrong on the issues."

Which CA-52 candidate was a heterosexual RINO who was pro-abortion and pro-same-sex-marriage?

I don’t think that write-in votes are counted in CA one-on-one general elections (I know that they aren’t counted in runoffs in other states).

I understand... but the point is that you are decidedly NOT voting for whatever waste of oxygen either party decides to force on you.

It’s still a choice. Just like not voting; but not voting is not an option for me.

You still showed up to vote; but you outright rejected the status quo.

And it tells “them” to GFThemselves.

This is a house seat.

The question is whether the democrat was going to win regardless. I seems this homosexual candidate was a throwaway candidate to test the waters.

The GOP should see this has failed.

Hopefully the new elected republicans will take not and not hire the homosexuals that are fired by democrats.

You’re right—the Left has been using both parties to insure their success for a long time.

Same here, i’d vote for a 3rd party or not vote at all. If the dem was palatable I’d vote for him.

Nothing is more important than God and family, i don’t care what his issues are. This country will burn in hell if and when it embraces death and sodomy.

Its not particularly difficult to see that happening either form a secular point of view(demographic collapse) to a religious point of view. No other issue matters more than survival.

these front groups work hand in hand with the rats...every single time....its why I won't give to pacs nor other supposed conservative groups.....

we had a group called "term limits" and within 1-2 yrs or its conservative beginnings, it was actively working to defeat republicans.....

Dr. Fred Simon was the other RINO, I just checked and he was a distant 4th, but as I recall he had more money than Jorgensen and it wasn’t at first apparent he was a RINO so many people figured he was the guy to back.

Scott Peters Dem. 40,685 42.2%
Carl DeMaio Rep. 34,613 35.9
Kirk Jorgensen Rep. 17,266 17.9
Fred Simon Rep. 3,839 4.0

There was only 1 conservative in the race. The 4th candidate (Fred Simon) was a RINO as well and he only got 4% (probably all out of DeMaio’s hide), didn’t impact the race.

No. This is heavily targeted seat the party wants back, not a "test" to see if queer Republican could win for the sake of having a queer Republican. The queer is popular former city councilman and the race is a tossup at worst.

Right, Simon, I remember now. I checked him out, and concluded that Jorgensen was much better, but I wasn’t aware that Simon was as liberal as DeMaio (maybe Simon hid it better in his website).

His website is still up. It doesn’t mention abortion or marriage. I forget where I learned his positions but it was after the vote, I endorsed him. He was a wealthy self-funder and I thought he was probably DeMaio’s prime competition. He was also one of those guys that mentioned he was a doctor every other sentence, so I seriously regret that.

Obviously people in the district knew the truth about him, no one had any reason to vote for him so he got 4%.

Okay well sounds like a crappy district that was doomed to begin with.
I guess that makes me feel better.

A much stronger conservative candidate was needed to have a realistic chance of beating DeMaio.

I would vote for a Democrat over a Republican I deem unacceptable. That’s because the bad apple Republicans will infect the Party, and we need the Party to stand something so that we even have a shot in the long run to stop the destruction of what we believe in.

That’s why I would vote for the Democrat in Mississippi because the strategies that were employed against the Tea Party in the Primary are more dangerous to let stand than a single Senator.

I voted for Mark Green over Bloomberg for NY mayor in 2001. Bloomberg was the nominal Republican at the time, but I couldn’t stand him from the get-go.

As long as the candidate is right on most policies, not voting for him or her because of sexual orientation strikes me as a form of mental imbalance.
