Democrats are putting resources into Cali. The goal is to wipe out this putrid, ultra-nationalist/fascist party.

1. Don't really care if he's 100% non-conservative...

He's the rancid fucker who said that Hillary deliberately let four Americans die in Benghazi.

[GWC58]

28. Oh sure he's not really that conservative.

Sure, and Trump was once liberal! I don't believe either one. Issa is very conservative and Trump never was liberal. He did fake it, though.

[MFM008]

2. Right...

He smells his blood in the water.

[Judi Lynn]

13. Sure hope so! n/t

[roamer65]

3. Tonite is delivering quite a scare to them.

Ossoff wins and their hard right agenda is dead in the water. They'll all be running for the center.

[librechik]

4. No, just a greedy, power-mad soulless criminal with an attractive smile

like a crocodile

[haele]

5. Issa is as conservative as his constituents want him to be.

Pandering to the Orange County Mega-churches kept him elected for a long time. Other than that, he's your typical amoral businessman out for that easy taxpayer subsidy. Better money than going after government contracts to hedge against the fickle free market.

6. He's just a regular con man

[JI7]

7. Darrell Issa's District is not as White as it use to be

hispanic population in the district is increasing.

[dalton99a]

9. Yep, his days in Congress are numbered

[JI7]

10. he is changing his positions but hopefully people will not forget

[hatrack]

8. Venal, dumb, corrupt, vicious, a liar, sure . . . but not "conservative"

Whatever, butt-munch.

[dchill]

11. Right. And Alex Jones is not that bat shit crazy.

Or so the Russians would have us believe.

[sarcasmo]

12. Watch Issa spin like crazy, crapping his pants watching GA 6th.

[diane in sf]

14. he's primarily a career criminal

15. Issa led the California recall effort against Dem Governor, Gray Davis.

The result: Governor Arnold Swartzeneggar. thanks

[Xolodno]

21. To be fair, and this is setting the bar low....really low...

Its better than Governor Issa. Arnold cock blocked him from that spot.... hey, he does know how to use that appendage.

[oasis]

23. Californians could have voted the Democrat, Bustamante into office

if it was him vs. Issa.

[Xolodno]

24. Bustamente...well....

I remember the debate, he came off as unsure at one end..then condescending at the other. Not the way to win. Davis made some bad missteps in the eyes of the public (if you or I disagree, its irrelevant in the court of public opinion...but lets face it, if the GOP didn't have its head so far up its ass, they would have put Riordon against Davis instead of ultra conservative Simon and won...in fact, the Democratic Party was already running ads, etc. against him before he got the nomination as it seemed he would be the GOP nominee). Bustamante should have said to hell with walking the wire, and went for Arnolds and Davis jugular. Instead he was apologetic for Davis while dismissing Arnold's populism, and hence the voters anger. Davis was done and Issa tried to capitalize on it. Bustamante should have recognized the same.

The only person who seemed to understand that the Democratic party was out of touch (hell, they ran a candidate against Arnold's second term that seemed like he was running against Bush and he trashed Nixon, like it or not, a California Native) was Brown. He avoided criticizing Arnold for the most part and when he ran again, he brought ideas that were receptive.

And yes, Bustamante could have won against Issa, if he was playing to win it, and he wasn't. So the contest was ultimately Arnold vs. Davis.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

25. Didn't Issa cry over that one? If I remember correctly.

[Xolodno]

27. Heh...not in public.

Once Arnold threw his hat in, it sucked everything out of his momentum. Issa was going to ride the anger against Davis...Arnold did that and courted moderate Dems. Issa was done as Davis. This was probably the last and for a very long time a Repub could get the Governors chair for a long time...and he knew it.

He wasn't going to be Governor, no chance in hell at Senator...so he probably cried himself to sleep knowing that his aspirations for higher office at minimum were stunted.

16. "Issa says he is not really that conservative."

Excuse me , but I can't stop laughing.Absolutely priceless !

[DefenseLawyer]

17. He's a performance artist

Come on guys! Haven't you seen the Colbert Report? Or Infowars?

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

18. I don't disagree. When

it comes to being a so called "conservative". It doesn't mean shit anymore. That word has lost all meaning. He's a right wing dickbag reactionary along with the rest of his piece of shit party.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

26. Yep.

Extra credit for calling him a dickbag lol

[KentuckyWoman]

19. He's correct - not a true conservative

the term has been twisted beyond all reason. By today's definition he's most certainly conservative.

But there is absolutely nothing traditional, frugal, or common sense about any of the "conservatives" anymore. Those values are owned lock stock and barrel by the "progressives" nowadays.

We are the ones championing workers, families, children, sanctity of the home, freedom to live in peace so long as it doesn't hurt someone else, frugality of all sorts, inclusiveness, growth of opportunity - economic and otherwise, freedom to worship or not according the dictates of one's heart..... and all the other "traditional" values of American life. We are the real conservatives if you go by the "traditional" definition.

The only thing Issa champions these days is hate, bigotry, greed, more hate and more greed. They are so twisted in thinking it takes tremendous effort to see any shred of humanity in them

20. Issa is feeling the heat from Levin.

Mike Levin has been all over social media and done an appearance on AM Joy. Issa would never say something like. His internal polling must be showing he's vulnerable.

Anyway, I really like Levin and how he is running his campaign.

30. Democrats are working to make Cali dark blue.

They are targeting every remaining Fascist Party member in the congress as well as several in the state house.

[Greybnk48]

22. Well he IS a racist pig, at least toward President Obama.

I can't wait to see him go down.

29. ASSHAT.
