Our First Boxer Virtual Fundraiser

Carly? (5.00 / 2)

Nobody likes Carly. Even the flat-taxers have turned on her. Hell, she'll never win just based on the price of replacement ink cartridges.

Bboxer could kill Ms Fiorina with one ad that let people know that the ink cartridges in every ink jet printer that HP ever sold were only partially filled.

We need to be raising vast sums for Barbara Boxer to allow her to campaign against the Chuck Devore campaign of twitter feeds and youtube ads. Otherwise, Chuck will beat Barbara the same way Mike Gravel humiliated that upstart Illinois Senator in the primary.

Speaking of Chuck DeVore (0.00 / 0)

I apologize as one of his constituents that Orange County has unleashed this sorry excuse for a State Assemblyman.  He continues to dish out the usual insults, straw man arguments and extremely insulting ads against you.

Having said that, you have our support here in the OC.  But please, please, we ask that you keep a public option in health care reform, it's imperative.

Unlimited funds (0.00 / 0)

I think Carly's (nearly) unlimited fundraising potential is the biggest issue.  She'll have a lot of $$$ that she can quickly pour into the race, if she chooses to, and that means we've got to be ready.  CA is an expensive state to run any kind of campaign in, and resources is a critical element -- no matter how popular or unpopular you may be.

You know (0.00 / 0)

I'm almost tempted to give DeVore some money, just to have the fun continue. It's really pretty awesome the stuff that emerges from that guy.

I suppose I'll pass on giving chuck money, but man, i hope he wins that primary...

I think?

Don't go there, Brian (4.00 / 1)

Although I did once give $5.00 to an ultra-right group at the urging of savvy progressives,  and was amazed over the next several years to see how many other groups spent hundreds of dollars soliciting me, and sending me prepaid envelopes, which I always returned.

Just rest assured that Carly will never get the votes of the movement conservatives, and no movement conservative will ever win a statewide vote.

If Carly were serious about running, she would have already announced, but the polling shows that a majority of Californians will vote against her once they realize how Carly screwed them on partially-filled ink cartridges with new ink-jet printers.

This crosses all party lines.

"Carly drove a Rolls-Royce, while my printer died because HP cheated us on blue ink, red ink, yellow ink, and black ink."

hmm (0.00 / 0)

I find it very difficult to do much for the Senator this time around, given that at every moment, this one time champion of the environment has caved to the "pave it all" lobby and to the biggest denier of climate change in the Senate.

I grow tired of electing Democrats in this state, who upon attaining real power to do good, end up caving in to the right. Bombard me with emails when you're ready to do some real good for transit, for the environment and the state NOW, instead of rehashing something you did 20 years ago.
