CA Shocker: DeVore Ahead of Fiorina In Race Against Boxer
Mark Joseph

For some time now it's been conventional wisdom that Barbara Boxer was in deep trouble in her race to keep her Senate seat and that Carly Fiorina had the best shot at taking her out. A new poll is casting serious doubt on the second part of that equation.

According to this snapshot, released yesterday, CA State Assemblyman Chuck DeVore does better against Boxer in a hypothetical matchup than Fiorina would.

The assumption that Fiorina would run stronger against Boxer than DeVore has made fundraising a challenge but this poll is likely to change all of that for DeVore and open up the spigots of campaign cash. And Boxer, who has coasted to victories over a series of weak candidates, may face the challenge of her lifetime should DeVore make it to the show. While the GOP typically runs uber-conservatives who are easily to marginalize as too right-wing for the state, DeVore may defy easy categorization. He's conservative to be sure on all of the issues that matter to GOP primary voters, but leads with defense and budget issues in a time when people are far more concerned about jobs and deficits. He's also become a favorite of the state's powerhouse talk radio hosts, John & Ken, and if they push his candidacy, it could be a game-changer. The two don't fit the profile of typical conservative talkers, generally taking a moderate to liberal position on social issues, while focusing their populist rage on tax and budget issues.

In the recent past, California Senate races have tended to be snoozers, with Democrats winning by huge margins. If the nation remains mired in economic distress in 2010, the Republicans, with a candidate like DeVore, may pull off a stunning upset.

All I know is that I hope Boxer takes a hike. When I lived in CA it haunted me knowing that Boxer and Feinstein were senators!

It haunts me to this day! They are two of the worst in a Senate filled with horrible Senators.
 
This is amazing news. May be a money bomb for DeVore is needed soon.
 
I dont know much about Chuck Devore, does he have a good voting record? What are his political positions?

I looked him up on wikipedia but it didnt have much info on there.

Basically what Im asking is if he's a Ron Paul Republican or is he your typical neo-con?

She completely screwed that company to high hell the moment she got in, but she walked away far better than they did.

She and Meg Whitman both have a horrible track record of trading short term profit for long term gain, then bailing out when the bottom starts falling out.

Politics will suit them fine. :(
 
Carly Fiorina was a big McCain backer.

Yuppie liberal RINO bitch and media-created fake.
 
Let's bounce Boxer out of there! The DeVore for US Senate MoneyBomblet is going on right now!

If one of those old washington dinosaurs were to lose; I might regain a tiny bit of faith that our elections are not completely rigged. I doubt it though... I think Boxer and the companies that she works for in Washington are just trying to make it look believable.

With everything going on in California, you know the elections are manipulated if any incumbent wins.

Exactly.

At least Whitman was actually at EBay during some growth and profits. Carly came in and destroyed a perfectly good company, and walked away with tens of millions of dollars. Poster child for excessive CEO compensation and incompetence. Isn't her first name really "Charlatan"? ;)
