California State and Federal Office Recommendations

Time to win another one for The Gipper! Photo by Armand Vaquer.

Tuesday, November 2 is Election Day. In California, state and officials are up for election as are state ballot propositions (I'll deal with the propositions in another post).

These are the following recommendations for state and federal elected officials:

Governor: Meg Whitman. She's not a conservative by any stretch, but she has business experience and may actually do a good job. Jerry Brown, her Democrat opponent, is a wacko whose last terms as governor got California on the road to the present mess. His judicial appointments were horrible (remember Rose Bird on the state supreme court?), he caused the Medfly fiasco and Cal-Trans was a zoo. California does not need a return to "Governor Moonbeam."

Lieutenant Governor: No recommendation. The "Republican" is turncoat Abel Maldonaldo. He broke ranks with the GOP caucus in the state senate and voted with the Democrats to raise taxes. I will probably vote for Pamela Brown, the Libertarian candidate.

Secretary of State: Damon Dunn. He's a small business owner and knows all about the red tape that stifles small businesses.

Controller: Tony Strickland. He'll make a good state controller.

Treasurer: Mimi Walters. She'll be a far better treasurer than political dinosaur Lockyer.

Attorney General: Steve Cooley. Strong on fighting crime.

Insurance Commissioner: Mike Villines. Not a strong conservative, but better than a leftist in this office.

Member, Board of Equalization, 4th District: No recommendation. I will probably vote for the Libertarian candidate as there's no Republican on the ballot.

United States Senator: Carly Fiorina. Easily a far better choice than that dimwit leftist Barbara Boxer.

United States Representative, 27th District (San Fernando Valley): Mark Reed. A strong conservative, Reed would make an excellent congressman. Brad Sherman, the incumbent, is a clueless, witless and arrogant dolt.

Member of the State Assembly 41st District (San Fernando Valley): Terry Rathbun. We need to clean house in Sacramento and the incumbent, Julia Brownley, is part of the problem of having a majority of big-spending liberals who have bankrupted California.

As I mentioned, recommendations for the state ballot propositions will come later. I will also make recommendations for judicial offices then.
