Connect the dots…Alda and Bening to Reiner

This morning in my Commentary, you can take a few minutes to read how my opportunity to see Annette Benning and Warren Beatty yesterday, and reading an article about Alan Alda (well, his West Wing character), took me on an fun trip through Hollywood, and some amazingly liberal entertainment types and their donation histories and more…

See this Commentary here. Also, remember that EVERY DAY, I post a Commentary on this site, that is separate from this blog. It is easily accessable from the main page.… Read More

Election Night Coverage

I will be working election night on Newstalk 580, KMJ from 8:00 pm until we find out the definitive results for all the major ballot initiative. Former Democrat Congressman Rick Lehman will be opposite me on this highly rated, Fresno based program. Newstalk 580 reaches from Red Bluff to the North out to Bakersfield and Santa Maria on the Central Coast. Although I hope the contrary is true, Tuesday could be a long night for the conservative team in California, and could also be the start of some important new strategies to consider against the evil empire in California, namely the public employee unions and their wholly owned subsidiary, California Democrats, Inc. Stay tuned.… Read More

OC Election Night Party

If you are in Orange County Tuesday night and want to party down with fellow Republicans, come to the Republican Party of Orange County Election Night Party at the OC GOP HQ.

The party is for Republican volunteers and activists and donors–people who actually did something this election cycle. Hopefully, actually walked a precinct or at least wrote a check to the party or one of the initiatives. There is no litmus test, but if you just show up to events like this and never do any of the heavy lifting (and you know who you are) it shows.

WHAT: OC GOP Election Night Party

WHEN: Tuesday, November 8 8pm – Midnight

WHERE: Republican Party HQ 1800 W Katalla Avenune – Suite 210 … Read More

From Arnold Rally in Anaheim

Here at Pacific Transformer Company in Anaheim Hills where Governer Schwarzenegger is giving a rousing speech to hundreds of supporters of Props. 74, 75, 76 and 77. The Governor was introduced by Orange County Sheriff (and my boss) Mike Carona.

If the energy here is indicative of the electorate…we may see some big wins this Tuesday!

Well, I’m going to go try and be important and hang out with Assemblywoman Mimi Walters, Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, former Party Chairman Shawn Steel and others!

Oh yeah…props to the National Federation of Independent Business for putting this great rally spot together!… Read More

Weekend Update from San Diego

In his post below, Jon noted Warren and Annette being refused entrance to this morning’s San Diego kick-off of Arnold’s bus tour. Nothing speaks to the "power couple’s" utter frustration like this AP photo and accompanying caption, posted atwww.signonsandiego.com:

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s spokesman Darrel Ng, right, tells actor Warren Beatty, center, and his wife, actress Annette Bening, left, that they may not enter a rally held by the governor at Montgomery Field to drum up last-minute support for a group of statewide ballot measures.

The moral of the story: If you want to be governor, you first have to run.

As for other news from SD, nothing says it as well as the missive just received from the County GOP, so I won’t try:

Arnie’s Bus in LA

Well, actually a empty warehouse in Irwindale.

John and Ken were our hosts. State Senators Tom McClintock and Bob Margett, and Assemblymen Keith Richman and Bob Huff all addressed the crowd. They then asked for the audience to clap for the best speech. Margett took off before voting and, of course, McClintock was the winner.

Despite waiting for the traffic delayed bus, when it pulled into the warehouse — yes it pulled into the warehouse — the crowd went wild.

We need alot more events like this before Tuesday. A Note: Julie Justice McGinity came out of retirement for this one. Nice job.… Read More

Annette and Warren

"Warren Beatty scares me," is what Democrat Pamela Anderson (no relation to the movie star) just told OC Register reporter John Gittelsohn. We are standing outside of the rally building where Annette Benning and Warren Beaty are boarding their "BS" Bus (my name) as they go off to shadow the Governor at his appearances in Riverside and beyond.

So far every opponent to the Reform measures that I have met is a paid union employee…go figure!
