		<description>Being very basic, one candidate represents Jon Kyls&#039;s vision of the ideal state party and that vision doesn&#039;t involve party members being involved in policy or platform - 

Kyl sells the packaging to the voter and doesn&#039;t want the voter to examine the contents too closely.</description>

		<description>Lisa&#039;s problem seems to be that Randy has made quite a few in roads with people who supported her last go around.  This isn&#039;t the 2007 showdown. This is a simple math problem and I don&#039;t think the math is in Lisa&#039;s favor.</description>

		<description>I thought Pullen had his chance when he ran for PHX mayor the first time.  Then he did the same thing and lost again.  Then he ran for GOP chair and won.  More power to him, but what does that say about his supporters?

Aside from all the good reasons, I think the masturbation ad alone is enough reason to show him the door.</description>

		<description>Before we get overcome with the self-righteousness of Pullen&#039;s supporters, let me just say that this is not a conservative vs. moderate race.  I am a staunch conservative supporting Lisa James.

This is about competence, plain and simple.  Do we want a chairman who attacks his own party and nominees more than Democrats? Who gets whipped in fundraising, voter registration, and early ballots? Who puts out TV ads accusing Dan Saban of masturbating?

Not me.  This guy has had his chance and has embarassed the Republican Party long enough.</description>

		<description>It is not the job of the party leadership to be the de facto voter.  If you want that sort of mentality, go to the party of the super-delegate.  Where they do not believe the average Joe is as as smart or as capable, and they have a safety net in case the vote doesn&#039;t go their way.</description>

		<description>The platform (right there in the preface) does not demand conformity.  Pullen demands conformity (conservatives only).  Therefore, Pullen is not a platform Republican.

Based on Pullen&#039;s attitude alone of purging the party of non-conservatives, it is enough reason to scare conservatives and in fact ALL Republicans.</description>

		<description>Home Town Gal,

Here&#039;s a direct; Jon Kyl is squarely behind Lisa James.  Jon&#039;s vision of what the state party is all about has been clearly articulated by Nathan Sproul on more than one occasion.

Part two; GCJPR has earned a shiny penney from the present Administration and those politicans close to it.  GCJPR was also very much involved in the effort this last Primary to change the complexion of Legislative District 11 - for the direct benefit of Senator McCain (who share&#039;s Kyl&#039;s vision of the ideal state party).

Now here&#039;s the $64,000 question:  If as Kyl maintains (and James supports), the state party exists to simply raise funds, register new Republicans and support anyone with an &quot;R&quot; after their name; What is the point of having a Party Platform??

If our platform is fluid and is public opinion driven, what does that say about the Republican brand and why should the consumer/voter buy it???</description>

		<description>All the people who write stuff like &quot;I hear&quot;, &quot;I was told&quot;, or &quot;could someone confirm this&quot; are desperate and trying to avoid being called a liar but getting the lie out there just the same. 

Grow a set and while you’re at it, grow a conscience.

If the list of Lisa&#039;s accomplishments filled the pages of this blog with records and accounting for all that she has done in the last 2 years, someone would start with..&quot;I heard all those voters she registered are RINOS&quot; or &quot;I was told she only gets money from people she promises favors too...wink, wink&quot; or &quot;Did you hear...she wears white AFTER Labor Day!&quot;

NO...she was not recruited by Nathan Sproul.  I understand it is a hard concept to comprehend but, some people actually think for themselves and are driven to service. Oh yea, there is no monster under your bed!

No...she did not take her ball and go home.  She worked on several campaigns, raised money for them, and has been recruiting hard working conservatives into the party.  Does she draw attention to herself while doing it? No, it isn’t all about “her”.

But here&#039;s a real scoop...maybe you can use this one, I heard from someone who was told by a person who is next door neighbors to the guy who used to cut her hair....she is not that blonde naturally...yep, gray is in there, too!  What a sham!  At least Randy is man enough to let his gray show.  

There you have it, the real scandalous behavior that sets them apart.

Now, can we please stick to the reality of both candidates and how our party can best be served?</description>

		<description>Sproul wouldn&#039;t work as ED, he wants lots more money that that.  I hear he made several HUNDRED THOUSAND dollars going get out the vote work with James in 2006.  Can someone from the party please confirm this?

So yes, you&#039;re right that Sproul helped recruit James and yes, he&#039;ll make good (great!) money from her winning.  But no, she won&#039;t be hiring him as Executive Director.

And yes Veritas, we lost CD5 and CD8 in 2006, before Pullen.  Oh yes, and the lady who ran our GOTV operations?  Yup, Lisa James!</description>

		<description>Uh excuse me Veritas. Where are you getting this information about Sproul being the Executive Director? He already served as ED for the party before going off on his own to form his own firm. Unless I&#039;m missing something, did Lisa have something to do with Nathan being chosen back in circa 2000??</description>

		<description>Before Pullen didn&#039;t we loose CD8 and CD5 and the Governor&#039;s Office?  

Oh, and lets not forget the track record of Lisa&#039;s pick for Executive Director, Nathan Sproul.  How many times does he have to loose before folks&#039;ll figure him out??  I mean loosing the Marriage Initiative?  Come on, give us a break!  (have no idea why Bee hired him in the first place)</description>

		<description>Oscar here&#039;s a simple question for you, ready?

After her loss in 2006, what did Lisa James do to pull the party together and raise the funds and register voters?

Seems she took her toys and went home.  Had she acted honorably and jumped in for the party - I for one would respect her a lot more.

Borders and Immigration, that&#039;s the gulf between the sides.  The bluebellies in our Senate delegation support open season on cheap labor and a NAFTA&#039;esque border.  The folks in gray want that line held.

We&#039;re coming up on Lincoln&#039;s Birthday - sense the irony here?  Until both sides find common ground the party will continue to loose in our Congressional races.

Perhaps its time to replace McCain and change the line up on the Az Congressional bench?</description>

		<description>If you want to make a case re: fundraising, it helps to compare &#039;06 to another midterm election, like &#039;02. 

Could also adjust for inflation.</description>
