Babs Boxer: Desperate enough to encourage lawbreaking

By: Neil Stevens (Diary)  |  October 28th, 2010 at 01:30 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

That’s where we are now in the California Senate race. Babs Boxer’s campaign made an organized, coordinated effort to reach out to schools, supplying teachers with information to disseminate out to students telling them how to volunteer for the Boxer campaign. That is not in dispute. Boxer’s campaign has admitted to it and apologized for it.

Of course, what they’re really sorry about is getting caught, and about Boxer having her toughest campaign of her entire career. That’s 28 miserably ineffective years in DC if you recall, voting the party line for the most radical elements of the leftist agenda. She’s so divisive she even started a fight about Ohio’s electoral votes in 2004.

This is one of the more competitive Senate races in the country, and it’s part of the key battleground of five marginal seats held by Democrats that we could pick up, along with Nevada, West Virginia, Illinois, and Washington. Consider helping Carly Fiorina’s moneybomb today to keep her on the air and keep her shifting the polls our way.

    I doubt the main stream media (besides Fox) will even air this story.

    instead of ‘Senator’? It’s just a thing…I’ve worked so hard to get that title.”

    instead of Senator? It’s just a thing…I’ve broken so many laws to get that title.

  • Adjoran

    After all, the government controls the schools, the teachers’ unions are part of the Democratic Party, the Democrats are in control of the federal government . . . why shouldn’t the students be used as free labor for Boxer?

    It isn’t as if she wants them to make tee shirts for Kathy Lee Gifford or anything like that. Just hand out some literature, answer the phones, trash some Fiorina signs. Easy stuff.

    But one thing, kids: do NOT call her “ma’am,” mmmkay?

    No big deal – illegal? So sorry, never mind!

    Just added to the money bomb; hope other RedState readers will do likewise. I really respect the fact that Carly has not moved to the left in the general election in order to win (especially on the issue of life), that takes a lot of integrity and guts!

  • tngal

    An ad from rightchange.com is funny and really highlights the whole call me maam I’ve worked so hard” garbage. As well as explaining to everyone the military’s addressing of rank. I find it hard to believe there are people who don’t see the arrogance of this woman and would want to keep her on.

    I did a quick read of a Rasmussen poll and it seems to show that the CA Senate race is pretty much a neck and neck thing with no clear lead.

    As the resident Poll Prognosticator, what are you studies on CA Senate race telling you?

    Babs Boxer needs to go, and most of the people I talk to want to see that so, but I don’t sense a lot of energy right now which would indicate people are going to dump Babs, my one vote will go towards that goal.

    Oh and Go Giants!

  • eastbaylarry

    The lib majority here almost expects arrogance.

    But in 28 years she has not done anything positive for California or the country.
    Plenty of negatives though, like a ‘human-caused’ drought in the central valley . . .

  • zipbags

    Then they will think its a forgone conclusion that Boxer & Brown will win and not go to vote.

  • californiagold

    First, I’d like to say that Carly Fiorina is one of the most impressive republican candidates running this year. Even though she’s running against an opponent who has attempted to mudsling, Carly Fiorina has done her best to keep the tone positive. And Fiorina’s personal story is one of courage and hope. If elected. Carly Fiorina will represent California well.

    As for the polling, the latest rasmussen poll has Boxer under 50%….with Fiorina only 3% points behind. Going into the final days of the campaign, for an incumbent to be under 50% in a two person race at a time when the wave is going against incumbency suggests trouble for Boxer. As of today, this race is a toss up.

    The key for Fiorina to win will be to outperform expectations in areas of the state where republicans and independents have a slight advantage. That means Fiorina must perform well from Sacramento all the way down the central valley, as well as San Diego,Orange, and Riverside counties. On election night if Fiorina is pulling at least 55% in these areas, that should be enough to compensate for the huge advantage Boxer has in San Francisco and LA.

    there’s still time. You can lose your sanity out in zombieland. Not a retreat per se, more like a strategic withdrawal.

  • SteveLA

    This really great ad against Babs boxer was on our local CA World Series broadcast and it’s a great ad.

  • eastbaylarry

    No time left for us tngal. I lost my job at the begining, May 2007, and haven’t been able to find a full time job since. Right now I could not find gas money to make it to the state line if my life depended on it.

    No, I’ll stay and defend my Country as best as I can while California sinks.

    too many repubs have already left the state; illegals are voting; other fraud?

  • http://www.hakubi.us/ Neil Stevens

    It’s competitve, and Fiorina’s ads are working, but it’s going to take a lot of money, work, and GOTV to pull this off.

  • chihank

    Two outcomes on Nov 2nd in CA. Either Carly & Meg both win or both lose. I don’t see how one wins and the other loses.

  • tngal

    I respect that and empathize with your situation. I pray what we’re all fighting for in the other 49 will go to help you and yours. (But CA is not the Titanic. Don’t go down with that ship. If you see a lifeboat, get the he!! out of that district, )

  • SteveLA

    Carly is running against a long term incumbent Senator who is a disaster and the worst of the worst in the Senate, Meg is running to take over running the state from the Governator Girlyman who has been a big slice of nothingness when it comes to governing.

    Throw in that State workers are PO’d over furloughs and the general budget mess in the state, Meg has a very hard race to run which she has been doing well at running.

    Two really different races, with the race for Governor being more of the “all politics is local” kind of state business/taxes/spending sort.

  • redtillimdead

    Fiorina and allied groups supporting her should oustpend Boxer for the first time this week since the race began, with Fiorina’s money plus $3 million from NRSC and $1.5 million from Chamber of Commerce, will beat Boxer’s $4.3 million for the week. When she was being outspent 2-1, she was in a dead heat.

  • redtillimdead

    Are you seeing it a lot during the game? If so, good!

  • redtillimdead

    While Whitman is down 10 points, Fiorina has been in a statistical tie in most polls. Funny how the candidate who stuck to her principals is doing better than the one who changed her position on everything the day after winning the primary is. Whitman’s massive GOTV effort will certainly help Fiorina, but I don’t think it will be enough to carry Whitman to victory. CA Dems are outsourcing their GOTV to the unions, while Whitman and Fiorina built a great GOTV campaign in the primaries (Whitman outperformed her final polls numbers by 15-20 pts, Fiorina by 5-10 pts) and they have merged their GOTV efforts with the state party’s effort, building a massive GOTV campaign for CA Republicans. Similar yo NJ in 2009 when Dems relied on unions while Reps built their best GOTV campaign ever.
