Brian is right. Ask anyone who worked in support, engineering – any department besides marketing – at HP. Carly Fiorina is a nightmare, a poor businesswoman (unless you count enriching herself at the expense of her company’s interest), and a horrible political adviser (as displayed by McCain’s pathetic campaign.)

This ad could very well be the worst political ad I have ever seen in my life.

Carly Fiorina is the post child for how to ram a company into the ground (Hewlett Packard). Sure Boxer sucks but this idiotic mindset of “anyone with an (R) next to their name is better than the idiot with a (D) next to their name” is counter productive to any TRUE conservatives. A perfect example is if Juan McCain had won in 2008. The Republican party would officially be dead by now if Juan was the new El Presidente. Instead we took a party Jorge Boosh had almost killed and we’re slowly reviving it by kicking one RINO out at a time. McCain, your next.

I see Carly has learned the the first part of the McCain Method!

That is:

1.Campaign as a Conservative

2. If elected to the Senate move to the left for four or so years to establish MSM and liberal financial ties (in this case Hollywood) and then….

3. Hold out the weather vane to determine which way the wind is blowing for re-election.

Principles of course are always flexible and establishments must always be served.

This FCINO stuff is similar to the antics of J.D. Hayworth.

You are missing the real smoking gun here…since the linear equation is based on the premise that Robert Davi is the same actor doing the voice over in the McCain ads and Carly’s ads, then McCain is implicitly tied to the message…let’s look at some other facts.

Well, what about the fact that this guy also played the villain in the classic tale of good over evil…The Goonies! That should be the story…anyone who would use an actor that tried to hurt kids and would leave his poor handicapped brother locked in the cellar…NEVER vote for that candidate!

It is a silly ad and I support DeVore but….I’m afriad McCain Derangement Syndrome has reached a fever pitch.

This is one of the weirdest campaign ads I’ve seen. A guy crawling around in a cheesy wolf’s outfit with cheap red eyes. Bizaare.

I agree that Fiorina is the best general election candidate. But if her campaign is putting out this stuff she has no chance of beating Boxer.

Vote DeVore or Campbell.

I was born and bred in California and had my first experiences working within the California party structure. Many power brokers within the CRP (I’m looking at you California Republican Assembly) are borderline delusional about the state of California Politics, as well as the GOP there. They have been overwhelmingly ineffective in getting out the conservative message and have allowed themselves to be painted into a corner by their opponents.

As it stands, no CRA, or CRA backed candidate will get anywhere near DC or the Governor’s office anytime soon. Boxer is a ridiculously fierce campaigner who always polls low this early. She will wipe the floor with Chuck without even a second thought. Tom has a better chance, but will probably go the way of Matt Fong.

Baby steps people, even if you don’t like Fiorina, she’s head over heels better than Boxer.

My number one priority in the California Senate race is to see Barbara Boxer lose. The question I ask is, “Which Republican candidate has the best shot?” I have no question that DeVore is the most conservative, but what good does that do for us if he loses?

California is a liberal state, and a “real” conservative hasn’t won statewide in about 30 years. Fiorina looks like the only Republican that has an even remote shot at beating Boxer (assuming she gets better media people), and on the big issues, she would be a good vote to have, and certainly an improvement over Boxer.

DSW: last night you posted a piece about Schweikert attacking Jim Ward over the Americans for Tax Reform pledge. Now it’s gone. What happened?

You are who you hang with and RINO’s certainly stay together. McCain, Fiorina, Crist … Not much difference between the bunch and all are about as politically attractive as a bucket of warm spit.

We’ll just all need to buck up and work together through the primary cycle. We also need to look at the positives. Rubio has gone from 30+ point behind Crist to a 14 point lead in about a month because of the grassroots, the Tea party, etc. So take heart and work at it until we get it done. It is RINO season and there is no bag limit.

Demonsheep and snakes in Guam.

Friends of McCain “snakes” add makes me want to send JD to Washington with some money for the snake cause. I still can’t tell from the commercial if they were bailing out the snakes or if they were killing them. So annoying. And “character matters”? Please.

It’s on Youtube as the newest Hitler spoof.

That guy crawling around in a sheep costume to urgently ominous music looks like Middle School film class work.

Way to go Fiorina!
