Fundraising Fail: Choi doesn’t capitalize on Pelosi smear

When Rep. Joe Wilson famously shouted “You Lie!” at President Obama’s joint address to Congress on healthcare reform, the South Carolina Republican was able to parlay that classless utterance into hundreds of thousands of dollars for his re-election (his opponent was also able to raise tons of cash).  Last December, Irvine Council member Steven...

Assembly Candidate Jerry Amante Touts an Endorsement from “Open” Mike Duvall

In another chapter of “Conservative Republican candidates with Attention to Detail Deficit Disorder (ADDD),” conservative candidate for AD-70 Jerry Amante has a new brochure out touting his candidacy with a list of prominent endorsements.  And guess who’s on the list?  None other than disgraced and resigned former AD-72 assembly “Open” Mike Duvall (aka “Drippy”). Here’s...

Maybe Jerry (Amante) Can Host a Telethon for Tustin

Maybe Jerry (Amante) Can Host a Telethon for Tustin

One of my biggest complaints about conservative Republicans running for office in Orange County is that they seldom have a record that matches their rhetoric.  Rep. John Campbell decries government spending when proposed by President Obama but votes for the bailout of banks and the automobile industry when the ideas are proposed by the...

Melissa Fox Gears Up for 2010 Assembly Race

This blog loves Melissa Fox.  She’s smart.  She’s capable.  And she’s one of the best Democratic candidates for the Assembly seat now held by State Rep. Chuck DeVore in years.  Her Republican opponents – Steven Choi, Don Wagner and Jerry Amante – look more and more like theThree Stooges as they try and out-conservative each...

Send Choi a Message by Sending Melissa Fox a Check

With all the press he’s received, AD-70 GOP candidate Steven Choi has likelu zoomed ahead of Jerry Amante and Don Wagner for AD-70 by issuing a very Rep. Joe Wilson-like call for funds from his Pelosi-is-Stalin stunt.  Choi’s whiney Letter to the Editor is in this morning’s OC Register. But tell Choi what you really...

Dirty Water in Tustin

The New York Times reported today that about 20 percent of the nation’s water supply is dirty, and while the story certainly gets to the cleanliness of the water, there’s a different kind of dirty water story in Tustin where the Republican city council majority is in a quandry.  They need the vote of...

Make 2010 the Year of the Fox in CA AD-70

With voters in NY23 rejecting a hard right wing idealogue, perhaps voters in AD-70 can do the same next year and cast a ballot for Melissa Fox against two hard core right wingers who desire to out-conservative each other. A Right-Wing Extremist or Melissa Fox? In November of 2008, voters in our district chose Obama, and...
