People who, from my perspective, really didn't want to win. Most folks don't know the first and last name of people on their street and probably don't care. Life in California is fast, expensive and stressful. People come to California to succeed. People make the trek because they want something better in life.
Winners come to California.
I understand the rigors on the campaign trail and I can already hear the well-paid advisors and consultants pleading with the candidate about a month out from the November election that they can't afford California. Bush will own Texas and early on will have sown up Florida with the help of brother Jeb. Dad will be moved into action in the Northeast and the rest of the Southern states will be split with the Gore campaign. The main battleground will be the rust belt states and the Midwest. Early Bush supporters like Governors John Engler of Michigan and Tommy Thompson of Wisconsin will help out there.
