1. As a Californian I implore you all to think before following our lead

We've taken you down the wrong path before.

[SaveElmer]

2. Sounds to me like California has excellent judgment...nt

[Vickers]

3. lol!

I doubt SaveElmer expected that as the 1st reply.

[SaveElmer]

5. No...usually I expect the "poll is rigged" reply...nt

[Capn Sunshine]

37. OK. The poll IS rigged

I never understand why our internal polling is so different from your polling. Survey America is of course someone Mark Penn is intimately familiar with.

Now, granted Clinton leads among registered Democrats who cite themselves as "active" in the party. But not by 37 points. Its always a matter of phrasing and questioning type. Do you have a copy of that survey? Just curious.

I'm not saying Hillary isn't leading; but these ridiculous margins are almost propagandalike in their revelation. It might be that I just avoid the Hillary people in my state. But how could that be since I'm active in the party and hear from them every day? It's a mystery to me.

6. ...

:rofl:

Yes, you do have "The Grope-an-ator" as your Governor. ;)

[slackmaster]

10. Don't forget that two infamous 20th Century Presidents both came from here

There have been others who never made President as well, e.g. Pete Wilson, S.I. Hiyakawa, George Murphy. The list is long and sordid.

[ShortnFiery]

11. Don't forget that an infamous 20th Century President (Gulf of Tonkin?) came from here

Remember the following chant from the 1960s? "Hey! Hey! LBJ! How many kids did you KILL today?!?

We are NOT without sin. :shrug:

[slackmaster]

13. Our Demagogues can beat up your Demagogues

[ShortnFiery]

15. Yeah (sniff sniff) they'll all *be back*

:rofl:

[William769]

20. Your ignorance is showing again.

He's from Texas.

I see you will take any chance you get though to bash a Democrat. I guess civil rights doesn't mean squat to you?

[ronnykmarshall]

26. LBJ's from California?

Who knew?

[William769]

29. Well we know who didn't know!

:rofl:

[ronnykmarshall]

25. and Boxer as one of our Senators ....

[Freddie Stubbs]

7. As a Californian, are you taking us down the wrong path by imploring us not to follow CA's lead?

:shrug:

[slackmaster]

8. That is quite possible Freddie, I really don't know. I am a Californian.

Consider it all a joke at your own risk.

[Carrieyazel]

30. Thank goodness the Golden State doesn't vote until February 5.

This lack of imagination and going totally on name ID, really burns me up. I thought Californians liked to think outside the box. Guess not.

[durrrty libby]

4. Her numbers have been stunning

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

9. Without Gore, It's President Clinton Part Deux

Actually Part 3 if you're measuring in terms.

Let's just get it over with and Annoint her as our next Queen.

Sorry, but I do not like her, and will Not be voting for her in the CA primary or the General Election. I really don't give a shit what happens to this Fucked Up Country formerly known as America.

We deserve what we get, even if it's another repub. Or in Hillary's case, a slightly better alternative.

[BigDDem]

12. I really don't give a shit what happens to this Fucked Up Country formerly known as America.

Spoken like a true Hillary hater, way to go!

[SaveElmer]

17. It's called a temper tantrum...nt

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

18. I Think It's More Of The Same

Different stripes, but similar outlook.

I'm 41. In my teen & adult years, I've had the following:

B Sr. - 8 YEARS VP

B Sr. - 4 YEARS P

MR C - 8 YEARS P

B Jr. - 8 YEARS P

And now??
MRS C - 4/8 YEARS P ???

Forgive me for wanting to puke at the prospect of seeing a B or C in the WH for 36 of my 50 Years in this country?

[oasis]

27. I'm so sorry that you had to suffer under those eight years of Clinton.

:eyes:

[xxqqqzme]

36. out of all the democrats I know in OC only

2 support HRC. Where is this suppoort the corporate media cabal keeps telling us about?

Hey, OCDem, are you going to the Truman Dinner Friday night? Looking forward to hearing Edwards again. Have you signed the Gore Nominating Pages yet?

[zulchzulu]

14. Looks like no need for Clinton to worry about California

I love overconfident adversaries.

:rofl:

[SaveElmer]

16. And I love an adversary...

That buries their head in the sand...

:rofl:

[zulchzulu]

19. Hehehe!

We'll see what happens in the first four states vote...

90 days until the first votes start...

That is:
* 7,776,000 seconds
* 129,600 minutes
* 2160 hours
* 12 weeks (rounded down)

Once Clinton loses Iowa (she'll place a distant third), the whole "inevitability" story will make her candidacy implode. Watch and learn.

[William769]

22. Your predictions have been lacking among other things.

:rofl:

[Semper_FiFi]

21. Kick and recommend. Hurrah for Californians.

They know a good thing when they see it.

[William769]

23. I'll second that.

[BootinUp]

24. That is an insurmountable lead imo. n/t

[opihimoimoi]

28. The Californians are not stupid...despite electing Arnold...they are not stupid

[eridani]

32. The vote for Ahnold explains the Hillary support quite handily n/t

[bagrman]

34. We need to get away from the corporate owned candidates.

[emilyg]

31. Smart state.

[huskerlaw]

33. Hmmm...

those numbers certainly aren't reflected in my interactions with people. :shrug:

[Yukari Yakumo]

35. Here's a really bigger number...

Undecided: 6%

A mere 6% are still undecided. If I'm not mistaken, that is way less than '04's number.
