Pro-Choice candidates are still PRO-MURDER and we as Republicans should not and can not support a pro-choice candidate under any circumstance. Murder is murder no matter what you choose to call it.

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 03:09:29 +0000 http://republicanleague.org/?p=309#comment-3 [...] Mark Herrick of the California Republican League shares his thoughts on the California GOP State Convention. The short story? The news is not good. Last weekend was the semi-annual California Republican Party convention. There was some activity at the convention that showed how politically incompetent some of our leadership is. First, there was a proposed by law amendment to the state party bylaws that would prevent independents from voting in the Republican primary. I can’t imagine a political strategy that could me more harmful to the Republican Party in California. As I have said many times, we are a minority party in California, and the only way we can win is if our candidates receive support from independents and Democrats. When independents get to vote in our primary, that helps our party pick candidates that are the most likely to win independent votes in the fall; which is an attribute a Republican candidate has to have to win in the general election.. A candidate that only appeals to Republicans can’t win in California. In other states where Republicans have the majority, candidates that only appeal to Republicans can win. But in this state that is not the case. Taking the independents out of our primary is like setting up a screening process to make sure that only the second stringers get in the game. Any person that has any basic grasp of political strategy should understand this proposed by law amendment was an incredibly stupid idea, but we have many leaders of the GOP in this state that doesn’t get this basic strategic concept.
