Primary Preview - June 8, 2010.

Millions of Republican voters will be selecting their candidates of choice this morning, afternoon and evening across the entire Nation. Close to a dozen states will be holding primaries today, but all political eyes will be on Arkansas, California, and Nevada; as interesting Senatorial races on both sides of the aisle will be resolved by midnight tonight.

Arkansas

Arkansas Democrats will have to choose between Senator Blanche Lincoln and Lt. Governor Bill Halter today; possibly redefining Arkansas politics. While Lt. Governor Halter is a dedicated Left-Of-Center-MoveOn.Org-fellow, Senator Lincoln is within the Arkansas Conservative Democrat mainstream.

But it really doesn't matter who Arkansas Democrats select this evening, because the Republican nominee; Congressman Boozman, leads both Halter and Lincoln by double digits in the polls. Plus Arkansas is thirsting Conservatism, and two Democratic hacks competing to be down-the-line liberals doesn't appeal to that thirst.

California

As I wrote yesterday morning: Republicans in California have to choose between electability or viability, and political purity. Do we want to win in November, or do we want to select the most Right-Of-Center nominee for November? In California you cannot have both; which is the reason why I support Whitman and Fiorina.

Democrats will also be choosing their candidate for United States Senate this afternoon; either Senator Boxer, or Mickey Kaus (blogger). This isn't actually a Liberal v. Conservative Democrat contest like it is in Arkansas or like it was in West Virginia, but the race does ask this of Left-Of-Center voters: Will they support a candidate who opposes the unions and illegal immigration in California?

Nevada

Senator Reid is on Republican and Tea Party political hit-lists, but Republicans support their former statewide Chairman; Sue Lowden, and Tea Partiers support a current Nevada state representative; Sharron Angle for the Nomination to face off against Reid. Causing problems through out the political foundations of the state.

While Ms.Lowden is almost guaranteed to defeat Senator Reid in November; the same cannot be said about Ms.Angle, who doesn't have a wink of statewide political experience, and who will be portrayed as a Libertarian nutjob too extreme for Nevada voters. With the facts and Ried's possible political ploys in mind, and with a thoughtful consideration of Ms.Lowden's Conservatism; only one candidate is worthy, and that's Sue Lowden. Period.

Other Races

Besides for the big three races tonight; political wizkids should keep an eye on the South Carolina Republican Primary, on whom North Dakota Republicans select to face off against Congressman Pomeroy, and on whether or not Republicans in Virginia's 8th district select Matthew Berry to be their nominee against Congressman Moran in November.

Kaus for Senate?

Mickey Kaus, a well known Democratic blogger from California, is challenging Senator Boxer in the California Democratic Primary next week, and even though his campaign has a close to zero chance of receiving 10% of the vote; Conservative bloggers are promoting his campaign left and right, as anyone is better than "Don't Call me Ma'am" Boxer.

Even though Mr.Kaus is a fellow blogger (we have a code), and he's challenging Senator Boxer (I despise that awful woman); I cannot in good conscience support his campaign. Why? Well, in the world of which I'm apart of; Democrats are the problem, and electing more of them, common sense or otherwise, is not the solution.

As Conservatives we need to be focusing on the Republican side of the aisle; and whether or not we want a candidate who cannot win (DeVore), a candidate who cannot stand Israel (Campbell), or a candidate who can win and who will support Israel (Fiorina) as our Nominee against Boxer come November.

Conservative bloggers can support whomever they want, Republican or Democrat. But I would never just support a Liberal Democrat, just because he isn't as Liberal as a sitting United States Senator. We must keep an eye on the important Republican race, instead of wasting our time on another Liberal "common sense" Democrat who has no chance-in-hell of winning.
