High-profile national Republicans, among them Romney, Jeb Bush, and Condoleezza Rice, have endorsed Kashkari. Karl Rove said at an April dinner held by the National Federation of Independent Business that Republicans would be “stupid” not to vote for him, citing the damage one of his opponents, State Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, could do to the party’s standing among Latinos. (Donnelly, a Tea Party favorite, is best known for the Minutemen Project, a citizen patrol he co-founded to confront illegal immigrants on the U.S.-Mexico border.) On Hugh Hewitt’s radio show, Rove went further, saying a Kashkari loss would be “problematic for the GOP.” The candidate has assembled a team of veteran Republican operatives. He has spent $2 million of his own money so far; the campaign’s most recent filings show it has $1.4 million on hand. “If Kashkari beats the point spread,” says John Pitney, a former national GOP official and a professor of government at Claremont McKenna College, “he’s got a great political future.” www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCIQqQIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.businessweek.com%2Farticles%2F2014-05-29%2Fcalifornia-governors-race-neel-kashkari-dons-new-republican-mantle&ei=9NOPU5DSI4-GogSJ4oGoBg&usg=AFQjCNE7_Jc9MvD4uLFIimOixvP2JAvP2AJC doesn't like the new kind of Republicans as they are what the Progressives were doing with LBJ's Great Socity. The left side of center. Anyway I do believe California is a TRILLION in the hole with all the state retirements plus what is due to the FEDS. GOTTA TO RAISE THOSE TAXES.
