Republican party favors less conservative candidate

They Just Never Learn!

The Republican state lawmaker running against former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina in California for a chance to square off against Democratic Senator Barbara Boxer in the general election says his GOP opponent embraces big government policies that involve "more borrowed money that our children can't repay." 

California Republican U.S. Senate candidate Carly Fiorina last week gained the endorsements of eight Republican Senators, including Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Tom Coburn, Susan Collins, Lindsey Graham, Jon Kyl, John McCain, Lisa Murkowski and Olympia Snowe.
 
In doing so, the eight Senators looked past the more conservative candidate challenging Fiorina in the GOP primary - State Assemblyman Chuck Devore, who is a Lt. Col. in the U.S. Army Retired Reserve, and was a Reagan White House appointee in the Pentagon. 

DeVore says Fiorina believes in a different scope of government than he does.  He notes she has said good things about the Wall Street bailout and supported aspects of the stimulus package.
 
"I fundamentally disagree.  I don't think the 535 members of Congress and the President should be picking winners and losers with money borrowed from foreign governments.  It's just not sustainable," contends DeVore.  "She's also said good things about cap and trade, the cap and trade energy tax.  She said so while she was chief economic adviser for John McCain, and [she] said so a couple of weeks ago on the Neil Cavuto Show on Fox."  MORE>>>>>>
