Whitman Wins GOP Nomination for Calif. Governor
Tuesday, 08 Jun 2010 11:58 PM
Meg Whitman, the billionaire former eBay chief executive who poured tens of millions of her own fortune into her first-time bid for political office, easily won the Republican primary for California governor Tuesday, advancing to face a Democratic icon, former two-term Gov. Jerry Brown.
Another wealthy businesswoman, former Hewlett-Packard Co. CEO Carly Fiorina, was leading in early returns in the Republican primary to decide who will challenge Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer in the fall.If Fiorina wins, it would be the first time the California Republican Party would have put a woman - much less two - at the top of its ticket.
It also will set off an election season of big-money campaigns and high drama in the nation's most populous state, pitting two deep-pocketed Silicon Valley business stars against stalwarts of the Democratic Party establishment.
Whitman, 53, worked on the presidential campaigns of Mitt Romney and John McCain. She has spent much of the primary in tightly scripted appearances and was criticized early on for avoiding detailed questions from political reporters. On Tuesday, Brown took a swipe at Whitman's reputation for controlling her message.
"I'm looking forward to a campaign where people get to see the candidates, not just the commercials," he said.
The opponent Whitman beat Tuesday, state Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner, is a wealthy Silicon Valley entrepreneur who spent $25 million of his money on his race.The heated battle with Poizner to win over conservative GOP primary voters forced Whitman to move to the right on issues such as abortion and illegal immigration, moves that could hurt her against Brown in November.
Democrats and moderate independents comprise two-thirds of the electorate in California. Without a serious primary challenger, Brown has positioned himself as a moderate, pledging not to raise taxes and to make the kind of spending cuts that Whitman also campaigned on.
The gubernatorial race promises to be the most expensive in state history.
Brown will not be able to match Whitman's millions - he has $20 million in the bank so far - but is relying on Democratically aligned independent groups to fund an opposition campaign. Source:www.newsmax.com/Politics/US-California-Primary/2010/06/08/id/361440

(Not For The Weak)
911 awaken America to the fact that many are planning the demise of our beloved NATION by any means. The tragedy is some of those 911 forces are domestic, functioning within our borders and even filling our elected offices.
"To be honest with you, America is facing a lengthy and difficult fight for survival. We must prepare now for an extended campaign led by men and women with intestinal fortitude, all others will fade.""Frankly, The Tea Party must have a core backbone of stalwart and vigilant Guardians, insuring the existence of the greatest movement since 1773." Dale Robertson - President of Tea Party/TeaParty.org
As you probably know, all too often the surge of protests subsides, the steam dissipates and the movement fizzles, the result is, the liberal socialists win, this will happen unless PATRIOTS draw the line and make an all out effort to guard our values which keep us great!
Dale Robertson - "We could be witnessing a Democratic Disaster in Arizona. Illegal aliens could control the outcome of the Arizona primary, thus controlling a State of which they are not citizens or even residents of. What part of "invasion" does Washington not understand?"
"In the seven weeks since Republican Gov. Jan Brewer signed Arizona's tough new immigration law, there has been a sharp increase in the number of Latinos registering to vote as Democrats, party officials say, jumping from about 100 a week before to 500 now. Many of those registering are young Latino citizens whose parents may be undocumented.
"Before, it used to be hard," said Luis Heredia, executive director of the Arizona Democratic Party. "Now, they are just saying, 'Can you give me a form?' or, 'I am already registered, but I know someone who isn't.' " Heredia and others who watch voting trends aren't surprised.
