The Current Crisis

The Mourning After

Thanks, Richard Riordan. So long, Gerry Parsky. California Republicans recover their party.

(Page 2 of 2)

True, the abortion issue can kill a candidacy -- Richard Riordan's. He never stopped talking about his affinity for abortion rights; he almost sounded like a flak for Planned Parenthood. The delicious irony of his women-like-me-because-I'm-pro-abortion babblings is that Republican women defected from him in droves.

The abortion issue could even help Simon with Hispanic Democrats. Simon, a pro-life Catholic like many of them, can ask them if they feel comfortable with a Democrat governor who sees the unborn children of poor minorities as nuisances to be exterminated with their tax dollars.

Simon, having beaten one high-profile liberal, is now ready to beat another.
