NRA Grades Whitman C+ and Brown D

[sfbadger]

Gun ownership doesn't equate to being a Republican. I happen to be a Democrat who likes guns, ... a lot, yet I'm also voting for Cooley and probably Fiorino, ... maybe? (at least NOT voting for Boxer)

As much as I believe Brown will support 2nd Amendment issues, I will never forget that he supports AB32. AB32 is going to cost Californian's so much money to implement it's scary.

i'm very affraid what that law will do jobs in this state. what jobs that are left. and gas will go way higher than it is allready with that law also.

Nope you got it wrong we all lose. You'll be on here before long post whoring trying to get your post count up talking about how crappy things are in CA before long.

You come here complaining about your beloved eMeg Whitless having been called a WHORE, yet you say a member here will be a post whore. Pot meet Kettle.

Thankfully, I have the joy of watching this race from my new home.

I agree!

I posted in another thread that my local gun shop has Meg Whitman stickers in his gun case and when I told him about Calguns he was BLOWN AWAY!

Which just further goes to prove gunshops are often founts of bad gun law information as well as bad gun politics information.

Perhaps your personal limitations necessitate you pandering to someone who you think can remotely affect your job. Me, I roll with whatever happens because I keep my skills up and am flexible.

exactly. Its always seems like gunshops really want you in fear so that you will just buy more. MEG HATES GUNS! I can see it now- meg gets elected then the gun shop tells you to buy more guns because a new law is in effect where if anything gun related is purchased after the day you visit his store it will be confiscated by federal agents....ooooooooo ssccaaarrrrrrryyyyy cash only credit card +5%.... Uhhhh ya ,... its cuz the democrats are charging more taxes!!! oooooooo ohhhhhhhh scarrrrrierrrrrr

Republican - democrat they all front , they all lie. Its all about what kind of art your into. they all paint a pretty picture but its just a picture. dont be a lolli pop

Ok, I think I understand what you are saying now. Essentially, the state is nearly 100% definitely going to fall on its face and fail, so it's better that it happens under a Dem/Lib's "rule", rather than a Repub/Conserv's "rule", so that way the Dem's/Lib's (by default) inherit the blame. I guess that makes some kind of sense.

The state fell on its face over a year ago. The sensation just hasn't set in yet. I've yet to even see a theory that could save CA from eventually filling bankruptcy. Any word on that from any of the candidates?

California is a net output state. The value of goods & services it produces are far far more than any intake from the gov't - even accounting for illegals, etc.

In fact with all the Fed taxes paid and goods/services produced, California supports a tremendous number of 'loser' neighboring states (OR,ID,NV,UT, AZ, WY, etc.) These latter states have more Fed intake (fed gov't jobs, social security, farm/crop subsidies, retirements, Medicare/SSI) than any outgo or goods & services.

Paying less to the Feds would actually let us get back into reasonable shape even "the way we are", without fixing much.

That's all good and well, but CA's output in government spending also far outpaces it's intake. I'd say it went critical last year if not earlier.

Right.... Hate to break it to the "stick it to the man" types here, but her chances of winning the election died in March. And by dead, I mean still born. Her chances never had legs to walk on to begin with. Instead of throwing your vote away, vote between the best of the viables, look into what it takes to make it out of the primaries as a viable candidate and better luck in 4 years.

[Excedrin]

I want someone who has really done something and building up a multimillion $$$ company is a lot better on a resume than saying you are a life long politician.

...

We need change not THE PAST. This is not Obama vs McCain. This is better...WE actually have a very well qualified person in Meg who actually has some credibility compared to Obama who is really a mystery. We know everything about Brown already as some of you seem to repeat so the questions is do we want a repeat of it?

I want no ill will with a fellow shooter. Please accept in advance my apologies. I just want a better CA.

This idea that Meg Whitman is a competent business leader is false. She has consistently failed at every business she's been CEO of (Stride Rite, FTD, Hasbro). Six months after joining eBay, they went public. The IPO process had begun long before she joined, she had zero positive impact.

Here's a good expose about her.
