| #9 Given a choice, I'd take Kaus over Fiorinna. No more RINO's for me. Ever. Arnold was the last straw. |

| #8 You keep putting these milquetoast, so-called Republicans up against Boxer and she is gonna keep getting re-elected. Give people a choice. Give us a chance. GB, it's Republicans like Fiorina and McCain who are responsible for that demographic shift that you mention and those Hispanics are not gonna vote for Fiorina any more than I will. But do not underestimate the Hispanics. You don't think they know when lame brains like McCain are trying to pander to them? Tell them the truth. Give them some logic and let them make up their own minds. They are not stupid. |

| #7 P2K I once heard of a guy who was saved because he wasn't wearing his seatbelt. 1992 Boxer vs Herchensohn Boxer +4.9% 1998 Boxer vs Fong Boxer +10% 2004 Boxer vs Jones Boxer +20% |

| #6 You never know. I've witness a true blue district flip that had major Hispanic population when the Trunk played the Roman Catholic principles back at the pro-choice liberal, and continued to hammer through the election. He let the record of the liberal's votes tell the story for him. It worked. |

| #5 When Ronald Reagan was elected President in 1980 the white non-Hispanic population percentage in California was about 67%. That percentage is now in the low 40s and sinking. Does anyone really think a "True Conservative" can be elected? Do the math. Ethnic voters tend to vote Dem/liberal. |

| #4 Carly Fiorina Means Business That's not what the HP board thought. Guys like Campbell and Devore cannot win a state-wide race. Dunno about Campbell but I think the real problem with DeVore is the establishment Republicans will not support him. They're the ones who would rather watch Boxer win than support a real conservative. They wouldn't give him a dime anymore than they would give Dick Mountjoy a dime when he ran against Feinstein. Well, this fall they're gonna watch as conservative Republicans stay home and let Boxer win. I can't do this "lesser of two evils" thing anymore. The lesser of two evils is still evil. |

| #3 The Dems really fear conservative or pseudo conservative women, it makes it harder for them to lock up the female vote than running against a conservative man. |

| #2 Poll vs Boxer show DeVore has the best shot. I'd take Carley over Boxer, but think she's a weak candidate who will wind up losing in November. |

| #1 Carly can win in California. California Republicans have a habit of putting losers, and I say that in the best sense of the word, up for election. As bad as Arnold has turned out to be, he is still head and shoulders above any Dem in the state. Fiorina and Whitman have a chance, however slim, to win in the Peoples Republic. Guys like Campbell and Devore cannot win a state-wide race. |
