In a parrying blow to the announcement (below) from the Neil Blais campaign, Assemblyman Mike Duvall has just endorsed Jeff Miller. THAT would be a major OC endorsement for the Riverside County-based Miller.… Read More
Longtime LA County Registrar Conny McCormack is retiring. Her chief deputy is poised to succeed her. Who is this person that will may soonbe in charge of the most populous county in California? It could be none other than Dean Logan. Dean Logan gained notoriety (Libs say experience) as the Kings County (Seattle) Election chief that kept finding new ways to count ballots until Democrat Christine Gregoire overcame the lead Republican Dino Rossi had in the 2004 Election for Washington State Governor. Ballots were found “late”, disqualified voters were “qualified” to ensure the Democratic victory in the closest statewide race in Washington State history. This doesn’t even count voting felons, illegals and other vote fraud. Now he could take over LA County just in time for the 2008 Elections. If it’s close in 2008 or 2010, where do you think the Dems will “find” more … Read More
After reading an article this morning in the San Francisco Chronicle filled with quotes from Senate President Don Perata and Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez where they announce redistricting reform "dead" for the February ballot, I wanted to provide the Governor with this link.
Governor, please keep your promise — HERE.
Perata and Nunez are scoundrels – politicans who are set on one thing only, preserving their own power. They want to extend their time in office by blowing apart term limits, and they are walking away from their commitment for a fair redistricting process because this, too, would diminish the power of legislative bosses.
Here is the excerpt from the article:
"At this point, we are going to miss the February election," Assembly … Read More
Borrowing the title from the 60’s movie classic to describe some bills fits the end of the ’07 legislative session. The movie depicted Lee Marvin leading a group of convicts to run a high risk mission in WW II Europe, played by Charlie Bronson, Telly Savalas, Jim Brown and others, bad guys doing a good thing. Sort of a reversal of likablepeople proposing bad things legislatively. Let’s talk about 12 of ’em or so in noparticular order.
SB 924-The Iraq war pullout advisory measure. A ploy that would be placed on the February ballot to have voters tell the President to quit "the occupation" of Iraq, seen as a way to drive up voter turnout for the Term Limit Extension measure.

Among the most active of the College Republican chapters is the hard fighting San Francisco State College Republicans. Chairman Leigh Wolf is an innovator and leader which should give us hope that future generations are in good conservative hands.
Those College Reps are a serious thorn in the belly of the Leftist, Hate America crowd. Have a look at yesterday’s 9/11 commemoration video (below) on campus. And see which loonies show up…and yes you will always find a local tenured professor beating the drums for America’s enemies. Wolf wisely teamed up with the College Dems to have a non-political 9/11 Memorial. But the other side of the democrats turned out also. Watch it here:
Ryan Clumpner is the state chair for College Republicans from UC Davis. For any questions about College Reps email him… Read More

Study Shows Public Employers Saved Billions from Workers’ Comp Reform Joel Fox, President, Small Business Action Committee
As California’s workers compensation crisis came to a head in the winter of 2003-2004, thousands of stories and complaints echoed throughout the state about the crushing impact workers comp costs had on California businesses. Workers compensation costs tripled for some businesses in just a few years. For others, workers comp premiums totaled more than salaries. In traveling the state promoting the Small Business Action Committee’s workers comp reform initiative, I held up a copy of a state of Idaho advertisement from a California business journal promoting reasonable workers comp rates there and offering to help California businesses move. Some did.
However, little attention was focused on the difficulties workers comp costs… Read More

House 2008
California-4: The power vacuum in the House GOP showed itself last week in the announcement by Rep. John Doolittle (R-Calif.) that he will seek re-election while under federal investigation in connection with the Jack Abramoff probe.
Republican leaders had wanted Doolittle, whose home was raided by the FBI and whose staff has been subpoenaed by a federal grand jury (apparently connected to his wife’s work with Abramoff), to step down even though he has not been indicted. When asked recently on the record… Read More
