Orly Taitz Getting Hammered in CA
There IS some good news tonight:

CA Secretary of State - just over 13% of precincts in:

Debra Bowen (D) - 495,682
Damon Dunn (R) - 386,928
Orly Taitz (Birther party) 125,446

The idea that Orly's on the ballot is really offensive, that this many people voted for her is unbelievable, but that she's losing big does provide some comfort. Maybe she'll just go away now.

1. I wanted her to win
So she could drag down the rest of the Republican party this fall. :D

2. Yeah, I see where you're coming from
but seeing her and listening to her rabid craziness gives me such a headache in my eye, I can't take it. Debra Bowen is the real deal.

6. I think it's upsetting she has so many votes!
She is not losing big enough.

12. You're absolutely right.
How could *anyone* who isn't completely insane vote for this creature?

11. I Am Somewhat Surprised...
California Republicans can often be quite crazy, and several politicians here have pandered to her birther followers. Maybe this will cause these politicians to recognize that she does not have a following that is worth pandering to.

14. Comfort? No.
Shes an attention ho. She won't go away until she is humiliated on a national stage/court, IMO.

I kinda hoped she would win.

Now that it looks unlikely, watch for "voter fraud" allegations to hit district court.
