I'd probably refute that 'electability' nonsense upfront:

If this election is any indication, you wouldn't be heard over the "He can't win" chant. ;-)

I saw that in the Forrester 2002 campaign. Lautenberg licked him, yet Lautenberg was a weak candidate. he could have been taken out - a strong conservative could have done it. the model? Rick Santorum managed to win in Pennsylvania.

I agree completely. I'm just afraid we're missing that opportunity here right now.

Thanks for the courteous back and forth!

"I'm just afraid we're missing that opportunity here right now."

The BIG story is the blow to the Democrat party monopoly on Sacramento. The opportunity to elect a conservative was missed by Bill Simon last november.

"Thanks for the courteous back and forth!"

Dittos.

I am now attacked on both sides as allowing 'baby killing' and as handing over the party to the 'religious zealots'. I cant win for trying ... I'm trying to get the advocates out of circular-firing-squad mode and find myself in the middle!
