Hundreds of thousands of those quiche-eating crunchies moved to red states like Colorado and North Carolina. Now they are trying to implement the same policies in those states that led them to leave California in the first place.

Can't be right, kalm says that money dictates what happens. Hmmm.

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a staunch supporter of stricter gun laws, donated $350,000 to Morse and Giron. Billionaire philanthropist Eli Broad gave a separate $250,000 check to help the legislators, while Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) repeatedly issued fundraising calls for Giron in emails to her supporters. The Denver Post reported Monday that those in Morse and Giron's corner had collected nearly $3 million, while proponents of the recall raised about $540,000.

"One thing is clear from the Morse defeat: Mike Bloomberg is political poison," NRA spokesman Andrew Arulanandam said in a statement.

The NRA spent heavily on the recall effort, reporting at least $360,000 and funneling unspecified dollars through its nonprofit arm.

The billionaire conservative Koch brothers also entered the fray, using their advocacy group Americans For Prosperity to target Morse and Giron. Due to the organization's nonprofit status, AFP also did not have to report its spending to the Federal Elections Commission.

Via Washington Examiner:

A spokesman for Public Policy Polling admitted Wednesday to withholding a poll showing Colorado voters were going to recall State Sen. Angela Giron by a 12-point margin.

The reason, according to PPP pollster Tom Jensen, was that “in a district that Barack Obama won by almost 20 points, I figured there was no way that could be right and made a rare decision not to release the poll.”


When the votes were counted in race, the poll turned out to be on target, as Giron lost by 12 points. “We should have had more faith in our numbers,” Jensen said.

Disgustingly horrible analysis, Chizz.

Clear Channel - Conk (but doesn't deserve to be on your list)
Viacom - Overwhelmingly Donk
Time Warner - Overwhelmingly Donk
News Corp - Conk for sure
Disney - Overwhelmingly Donk

And the one you conveniently left off of your 95% analysis:
Comcast NBC Universal which has a 17% market share - Overwhelmingly Donk

4 of the 5 largest media mega corporations serve as the unofficial media wing of the Democrat party.

For the record, recalls should be used for malfeasance and crimes in office, not because some herd of jackals disagrees with their views.

Conks making more friends.....

Via DNC:

DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz released the following statement in response to yesterday’s recall election of Colorado Senators Angela Giron and John Morse:

”The recall elections in Colorado were defined by the vast array of obstacles that special interests threw in the way of voters for the purpose of reversing the will of the legislature and the people. This was voter suppression, pure and simple.
