Did you know that the OCGOP endorsed Diane Harkey for Supervisor in 2022?
I wrote a post lambasting the OCGOP for endorsing Diane Harkey – especially after the full extent of her abhorrent personal behavior was laid out on this blog and in other places.
To his credit, Fred Whitaker forcefully and aggressively backed up his committee’s decision and campaigned hard for Diane Harkey. It looks like Harkey is going Darrell Issa on the OCGOP. It is not like your intrepid blogger did not see that coming. When Harkey loses a race, she looks for someone to destroy over it. In 2018, the straw man was Darrell Issa; in 2022-2023, it is Fred Whitaker and the OCGOP.
You can read more about the Darrell Issa / Diane Harkey Saga here – Part 1 and here, Part 2.
The latest manifestation of Diane Harkey’s rage is here:
That’s right, “Republican” Diane Harkey is hosting a fundraiser for Katrina Foley, the socialist incumbent supervisor representing an R-Leaning district. Foley’s re-election means that the Orange County Board of Supervisors is majority dem for the first time in 40-some-odd years. Your intrepid blogger had been told that Harkey was helping Foley in the 2022 campaign, but I needed direct proof. This sure validates that accusation to be based in fact.
The logical next step for Diane Harkey is to start a Lincoln Project chapter in Orange County where she, the trump-haters that have been voting dem for the last two cycles, and Cristci Cristich can call home. (Google Cristci Cristich, the chair of Republicans for Clinton, for a nice historical reference)
Well, we warned the OCGOP. We warned Fred Whitaker. They endorsed her, and now the crazed Diane Harkey is doing to the OCGOP what she does to everyone she discards after losing an election. (sigh)
While Diane Harkey has yet to take responsibility for her drunken rampages, anger outbursts, and drunk texts that have become the hallmark of her recent political efforts – she is adding to a trail of destruction that has been well documented. With a slew of purple seats in a now frustratingly purple county, the OCGOP can not afford to have a drunken rage ball running around selling out the last bits of credibility to the socialists.
As a footnote – some people excoriated Kevin Muldoon for running. Muldoon endorsed Bates, and you have not seen him aiding and abetting democrats. (And note how close his vote total was to Harkey’s.)
As a second footnote, an excellent site about Diane Harkey is still live.
