This is old news. It happened in March. The GOP endorsed Log-Cabin Republican Carl DiMaio over Nathan Fletcher. Fletcher had decided on many occasions to go Abel Maldonado on the GOP, often apparently for his own political gain. However, that does not absolve the...
Doug LaMalfa was the choice of the GOP establishment for California's First Congressional District. What happens when you have a candidate campaigning as "One of Us" who gets exposed for ethical issues and for taking $5million in Farm Welfare? All of his primary...
Charles Munger has to be pissed. One of his poster children has ditched the GOP. I liked Bruce McPherson - I know he was a complete Mod, but in Santa Cruz County, I was glad there was some sort of Republican presence there. Not anymore. Like Jim Jeffords and Arlen...
Dave Gilliard proved a lack of integrity by putting out mailers so bad that even the Sacramento Bee called him out on them. Even before Dave Gilliard went on tilt - his hubris would not allow him to take Mr. Pugno up on his pledge. In doing so, Gilliard gave Pugno...
Want to know why billionaires like Charles Munger think they can buy the California Republican Party? Because as demonstrated by it's behavior - the CRP is dead set on committing suicide and someone like the big daddy can walk in to the vacuum and take over. The...
File this revelation under the category of the California Republican Party gets what it deserves. I got a copy of a desperate appeal for support from Arnold Zeiderman. This is quite possibly the most complete self-indictment I have ever seen of a completely...
I had the occasion to run in to Mark Spannagel on Friday night 6/9/2012 at a South Placer Republican Women's event. He was none the worse for wear and we talked shop for a while. I'd be surprised if anything came from the campaign scandal at all. This post is to...
If he does not, could we see a recall of the Amador GOP Central Committee? As reported on this blog - the Amador GOP Central Committee has quite a few unfilled seats as few ever file. Arnold Zeiderman was able to use this to his advantage - getting a Seaton...
Jeff Seaton and the Amador GOP have been humiliated by the voters of Amador County. The final score is 61.86 to 37.77. A 24 Point whupping. Ouch. http://www.co.amador.ca.us/index.aspx?page=917
That's about all the headline that requires. http://www.placerelections.com/election-night-results.aspx Now, Pam Tobin can return to her regularly scheduled campaign of harassing her neighbors and letting her dogs run wild. Meantime, Kirk Uhler can continue...
Side Note: Doug LaMalfa said publicly that he is running for Congress to represent the Farm Bureau's interests - could that be in reference to protecting their farm welfare? It would be consistent behavior from LaMalfa. If it is ok for a legislative Chief of Staff...
Pledges. They are worthless - witness Howard Jarvis Taxpayers endorsements in recent years. They have endorsed several marginal Republican Candidates that have made a mockery of their good name. (How dare I point that out) Remember Arnold Schwarzenegger? Witness...
