Bottom line: Joe supported (overtly or covertly) democrats over republicians. Joe just own up to it and move on… to the young democrat party. We don’t have room for partisan traders like you. Personally, I don’t think any party should support you. The fact that you sit on the YR board will now put a stop to “any” contribution I make to the RP (very active these last 5 elections). THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WILL NOT BE RECEIVING ANY MORE MONEY FROM ME! Joe, maybe you can get your democratic friends to help.

I’m not a YR and don’t speak for them, but I’m just going out on a limb here.

1. The event gets people to give toys to kids at Christmas. There is never anything wrong with that, it doesn’t matter whether its an election year.

2. I’m guessing the event will add a few bucks to the clubs coffers.

3. All events like this help to grow and solidify your organization. People don’t join a club that does nothing but demand work. Sometimes you have to provide events to get people interested and invested so they will knock on doors when you need them too.

4. YR’s fight an uphill battle because the majority of young people, especially in CA, are liberal, and its up to them to create ways to get members. So, unless you want to become a member and vote, you should just go back to your cats and leave the YR’s alone.

I’m a little late to the party on this.

Honestly I expect Joe and James to have it out. Although I must admit it is mildly exciting.

But truly, isn’t the real issue the fact that the Young Republicans are soliciting money for Toys for Tots?!

Next year is an election year and we have a special election in Oceanside this winter.
Yet, the Young Republicans spend time asking for donations for Toys for Tots. Inevitably drawing resources away from candidates.

Since when did the Young Republicans decide they would increase their legitimacy by becoming a charitable auxiliary?!. Lets get some boots on the ground or dollars in campaign coffers instead.

I find these actions disappointing and a little disgusting. But truthfully not surprising. It’s what I’ve come to expect- just the latest non-political action by the club.

Again, atacking fellow republican’s is to be avoided when possible, but attacking a fellow Republican while heaping praise on a Democrat with the same policy position is VERY wrong.
That’s called having a “self loathing” problem…

Higher office? I guess if you define “higher office” as higher than not being elected.

Sheffo has not learned the number one rule for candidates; if the only boosters that you have are your parents and your dog, you are probably not going to win higher office.

Jerome Stocks is the quintessential example of a RINO in GOP clothing. North County is Republican country, so if you want to get elected, you get a leg up by declaring yourself Republican when running for office. Once elected, too often the GOP establishment mindlessly backs such ersatz Republican incumbents for reelection.

Indeed, it’s been my experience that with local city councils north of San Diego, too often it’s simply impossible to tell the difference between most elected Dems and most Republicans. WAY too often they vote together, and almost always for bigger government, more regulation, more land grabbing and higher taxes.

There are notable exceptions, but they STAND OUT as notable exceptions — such as Jim Gibson in Vista. This trend by Republicans to support RINOs is truly sad.

This poor Democrat loving attack monkey still doesn’t see that he’s doing it now! Praising Houlihan, ignoring Bond, and bashing Stocks, even though they had identical records on every issue Joe brought up as sinful!

From reading “Go Pound Sand” post I got the impression that the man was not “preoccupied with you” as you would flatter yourself, but rather just pissed that you would have the audacity to behave very badly, and then ask the man for money.

Frankly, I don’t blame him.

Stocks is bashing you because his buddy Dalablabber is up for re-election in 2010 and he is scared you might run against him and ruin the tripod act. Typical whining from Jerome. He really believes he was re-elected by choice as opposed to apathy.
