I can't imagine anyone voting for gay marriage, these people don't need to get married they need to be medicated, find out what is wrong with them and fix it, don't increase the problem

by letting them get married .

about time

its about time to end the hand outs at the cost of our states businesses both large and small. If I want to give my money away I'll decide who to give it to not the state.you bleeding heart liberals are killing us. You're great at giving away other peoples money.

My, I am amazed at these responses. It sounds like California needs someone with business experience. And, as for Republicans being willing to let poor people starve the reader should check it out. Conservatives are among the best givers and liberals are among the stingiest; a statistical fact.

I don't want to hear another liberal berate us for being hateful. They have the corner all to themselves.

Disappear

And what will another Republican have to offer but more Social Darwinism? The problem with Right-wing ideology is that at its core lies the idea that it's morally acceptable to let poor people starve to death. This has always been the fundamental principle. Well, thanks, but no thanks. If you're not for the People, do society a favor and stay home.

Steve Poizner is head and shoulders above all the other possible contenders for the job, including Ms. Whitman. Ms. Whitman’s performance at the Republican convention last year was disappointing to say the least. Poizner’s resume is as diverse and relevant as any candidate and he has the intelligence, vision and leadership skills needed at a critical time in the state’s history. I am a lifelong Democrat but there is no doubt in my mind Poizner is the guy for the job.
