A big boost for Don Wagner

Allan Bartlett of Red County/OC (AD 70 Watch: Don Wagner Gets The CRA Endorsement) reports that the California Republican Assembly has endorsed our own Don Wagner in the 70th Assembly District race. Here’s his campaign’s press release:
The Orange County chapter of the California Republican Assembly, the state’s oldest and largest conservative volunteer organization, held its endorsing convention this past Saturday in Newport Beach and overwhelmingly endorsed Don Wagner for the 70th Assembly District. Wagner defeated moderate Republican Jerry Amante by a 28-3 margin. Amante was unable to hold the 5 votes of his home base, Tustin, where he serves on the City Council.

“I am very proud to have earned the support of the CRA, one of the most important organizations in our party and within the conservative movement,” said Wagner. “CRA is the conscience of the Republican Party and has always been focused on governing based on a set of principles. I have done that as president of the South Orange County Community College Board of Trustees and will continue to as a member of the State Assembly.”

Wagner is a proven conservative leader, having founded the Orange County chapter of the Federalist Society, a nationwide organization made up of conservative and libertarian attorneys, judges, and law professors dedicated to promoting the rule of law against liberal activism.

He is supported by conservative leaders like Hugh Hewitt, Michelle Malkin, John Eastman, Jim Lacy, and the Atlas PAC. He is also proud of the support of conservative California Senators Tony Strickland and Mark Wyland….

There's a joke in there somewhere about a "booster seat," isn't there?

Lacy is plainly a rat bastard. Even Republicans acknowledge this. Malkin is pure demagogue. Eastman seems to pal around with the likes of John "Torture Boy" Yoo. Wow, what a crowd of supporters. I'd rather be supported by the Manson family.

Well, the post about Wagner at Red County has garnered "ZERO" comments - what a dreary blog that is! Do those guys get their headshots from some generic clip art file or what?
