Finding Courage
California Republican's New Huevos

Video shows how Dan Lungren lost California for Republicans in 1998.
Los Angeles Times -- December 5
Immigration debate unifies California GOP

Moderates lose ground as the primary focuses attention on the issue that once split the party
    Thirteen years after a ballot measure against illegal immigration fractured the state Republican Party, the issue again is front and center in California's upcoming presidential primary.
    Moderates who have argued that an unyielding stance against illegal immigration would further erode the party's strength in this increasing polyglot state have effectively been silenced by GOP forces calling for a hard-line crackdown.
    However, Whalen cautioned that candidates who veer too far right will become susceptible to being branded as racially divisive, as Wilson was after he backed Proposition 187 during his bid for reelection.
    Our Comment: What nonsense. Wilson united California and was re-elected because of Proposition 187. Our video "Courage and Capitulation in California" told the whole story.
