I don't wish to be in the contest I just want to give my opinion on two races
33 SD
Walters 61
Sidhu 39
Sidhu was smart to engage the services of Coronado Communications. They have proved they can win in OC. He should have kept listening to them. His campaign jumped the shark with that silly press conference that Harry organized himself.
Mimi had the funding, the political record/resume and the services GBWA- who don't really know how to lose in the heart of Orange County. I think Mimi has a statewide office in her future.
71 AD
Miller 56
Blais 44
Neil Blais had the talent of Tim Clark & the OC Money machine in his corner and he still managed to blow it. Given the proper amount of funding that Blais should have raised Clark would have made this closer. Blais taking bad political advice from the fellow members of his city council on being the “Orange County Candidate” was a disaster. Miller ran an issue oriented campaign talking about things Republican primary voters care about. Miller had the foresight to seek and listen to advice from GBWA who as I stated above are the best at winning OC primaries. In hindsight the OC machine should have backed Mission Viejo Councilman John Paul Ledesma. With voters discovering that Blais is a former liberal Dem and that he makes his living getting government grants for the welfare class, he is going to have a hard time hanging on to his council seat in two years.

71st Blowout
Blaise 99.9%
Miller 0.01%
Blais is from Orange County and Miller is from that pile of cow poop called Riverside County. There is no way Blais loses like all the polling says he will- NO WAY !!!!.
Neil already has a house in Sacramento, he is ready to serve this can't be happening it can't. We are RSM we rule the world , we are better then the rest. I can't believe this is happening, Please God Please let Neil win, PLLLLLLLEEEEEEAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Mimi vs. Sidhu - 59% - 41%

JPL as I stated above, you would have done a much better job repersenting OC in the 71st AD race.
Thanks Tyler
Phil,
Thank you for the kind words but a closer second is still second. Jeff will be a great representative for the 71st and the movement.
