Two Republican Candidates Won't Join Palin in California Rally
CALIFORNIA) -- Though Sarah Palin might be heading to Delaware to show support for Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell, some Republicans are wary of appearing with her.
Two of California’s marquee Republican candidates, Senate hopeful Carly Fiorina and gubernatorial contender Meg Whitman, will not be sharing a stage with Palin when she rallies voters in Anaheim, California later this month. The event is also expected to include Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele.
In response to their absence, The New York Times’ Adam Nagourney says, “The fact that these two Republican candidates would find someplace else to be on a Saturday afternoon less than a month before Election Day is not exactly a surprise, considering the political dynamics of this state. There are not enough Republican base voters out there to carry anyone to victory anymore in California. And independent voters -- who have been the main target of Ms. Whitman in recent days -- have a decidedly unfriendly view of Ms. Palin, here and across the country.”
