Why I’m Running for Central Committee
Can you imagine changing California? I can. I have served as a delegate on both the San Diego GOP Central Committee and the California Republican Party for several years because I believe our state is worth it. We are at a critical and important time for our party. While the challenge seems insurmountable, it is not, the solution is actually …
Buttigieg: The Made-For-TV, President Bartlett-endorsed candidate
I love to watch reruns of the television show The West Wing. While it skews to the left, I think Sorkin et al did a pretty fair job of portraying Republican principles without TOO much rancor. But The West Wing went off the air in 2006 and that is a lifetime in politics. When the show was introduced, Pete Buttigieg …
If #AB5 Was Good Legislation, There Would Be No Need for Exemptions
UPDATE AT THE END OF THE ARTICLE I believe that we own our own bodies and minds. Individuals have a right to decide what to do with both and the products which spring from those actions (labor and entrepreneurship). I believe that individuals have the right to enter into or reject voluntary, contractual agreements and, absent of the threat force, …

It’s time for a new generation of FIGHTERS to take back California! In the 2018 election cycle, Carl DeMaio’s voter guide was downloaded by over 100,000 voters in San Diego county – more than the official Republican Party Guide (though that one is good too and widely used.)

Don’t Vote for Someone Who Is Not Endorsed
Every election season Second Amendment organizations reach out to candidates. We send questionnaires and meeting requests and it is all an attempt to evaluate their candidacy for possible endorsement. We want to know if they are pro Second Amendment, viable, and honorable because our next step is to communicate to our membership that support will be needed to get that …
Endorsements– Republican Party of San Diego County Central Committee for the March 2020 Presidential Primary Election
The Central Committee of the Republican Party of San Diego County (RPSDC) is the governing body of the local Republican Party. Every four years, registered Republicans vote for up to 6 members to represent their “District”. Mostly, through attrition or targeted removal by arcane and subjective “rules” enforcement, the voters’ will is overturned to appease special interests. Six years ago, …
Sweet Virginia – Part Two
We have now completed part two of what I believe to be a three part Second Amendment saga in Virginia. Part two concluded with a very well attended and peaceful (much to the dismay of the left) pro-Second Amendment rally in Richmond. Part three will play out in 2020. The three parts break down as follows: Part One Part one …
Bloomberg v. Trump in November
San Diego Congressman Scott Peters endorsed Mike Bloomberg for President this morning. It’s a crafty endorsement for Peters because Bloomberg is an “outsider” but hardly an “outlier”. Bloomberg was a successful disrputor in the Wall Street information business and built an admirable financial multi0media network. Most recently, Bloomberg served as the 108th Mayor of New York City from 2002-2014. Peters …
Hoops with District 7 City Council Candidate “Holy” Noli Zosa
Noli Zosa knows what it’s like to be the underdog. Most everybody in town is celebrating the Aztecs undefeated basketball season (20-0 as of 1/24/2020), but yesterday, Noli and I watched a young, athletic Toreros team fall for the 14th time this season to Santa Clara University. Noli is an undergrad and law school alumnus of the University of San …

Carla Marinucci at Politico has a nice summary of the fallout over the last few days, including Darrell Issa saying he would demand that local GOP Chairman Tony Krvaric resign.

Issa endorsed by National Right to Life
“I’m honored to earn the endorsement of National Right to Life. Unlike Carl DeMaio, I have always been committed to protecting the unborn and preserving the sanctity of life. I’ve voted to defund Planned Parenthood and I will never support federal funding for abortions.”
When even Daily Kos says your bill sucks
Assembywoman Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher has been digging her heels in so much in recent weeks, she’s now forming trenches. That’s why it’s hysterical to see even her most strident left-wing fellow travelers not sharing her bunker in defense of AB 5.
