John McCain, who is in a tough primary battle in his native Arizona, swings quickly through California making a campaign pitch for Carly Fiorina. Isn’t it bad enough that Fiorina is trying to present herself as a conservative in the Golden State, the home or Ronald Reagan, but to have her pitchman, the poster boy for the ‘old boy’ Republicans, raising money for her in our state is deplorable. The real conservative in this race, Chuck DeVore, is busily getting his statewide campaign team in motion to get all the wheels turning before the June Primary.
During McCain’s Presidential bid, he started off with a good solid economic team, people like Phil Gramm and Dick Armey, and quickly replace them with opportunist Fiorina, shortly after she had been ousted as Chairman of HP, by the Packard family. Not much of an endorsement for a top economic job if you ask me. McCain showed during the campaign he has a definite lack of knowledge on economic issues, hurrying home in the middle of the campaign to vote for the stimulus package (otherwise known as the Democrat political payoff), and then for his supreme lack of judgment in his economic team.
Now as a political payoff, he is stumping for Fiorina, trying to bring his ‘old boy’ form of Republicanism to California. We will have none of that here! McCain is in the primary fight of his life as conservatives still blame him for Obama, and former Congressman J.D. Hayworth may be able to defeat him in the primary, despite the Dems best efforts to mount an ineffective ‘TeaParty’ party attack to siphon off Repub votes. J.D. Hayworth is viewed as the lessor of two evils, since he is known for his liberal use of earmarks.
