My longtime friend and fellow FlashReport blogger, Doug LaMalfa, is running for the State Senate. While as a GOP officer I don’t take sides in primaries — I think we can have a "if you blog dozens of times for this website we’ll promote your campaign materials" policy. Anyways, Doug’s launched what I think is his first TV spot… Check it out!

My apologies in advance, but this is a “Tale of Two Campbells” – so look for me to use first and last names when referencing the two principles in this story. It’s like opening a can of Campbell’s soup — one with a lot of pork inside…
When I was reading the exclusive column featured on this website, penned by former Congressman and U.S. Senate candidate Tom Campbell, in which he pledges to carry no earmarks were he elected to the Senate, and in which he challenged one of his primary opponents, Carly Fiorina, to join him in making this pledge – something came to my mind: a conversation that I had with Congressman John Campbell (who is also a regular contributor to the FlashReport Blog) a few years ago.
Most readers probably know that John Campbell has been amongst the few patriots (along with… Read More
