Poor Citizen and Dave II,

I recognize your points about the liberal nature of CA and would accept a true fiscal conservative. Scott Brown appears to be that man, we’ll see how he votes.

CA is in deep trouble because it’s government is way too large and it is spending far too much money as revenue sources drop away. It is further damaged by excesive regulation and an anti business bias. If a social moderate can fix those problems, I will support that candidate. However, Devore can definitely support solutions to those challenges; Boxer has so little understanding of economics there is no hope that she can support pro private enterprise policies. CA won’t turn the corner until it befriends private business and makes that a cornerstone of government policy. Any candidate will need to focus on business and economics. Devore can do that as well as Campbell and Fiorina.
