The OC Weekly had a fascinating article about some political machinations in the 2014 election. Let me write it in crayon, this post is not about Jeff Lalloway, who benefited from the Independent Expenditure. This is about #epicfails of Orange County GOP...
Again – many things in John Moorlach’s Record Suggest that he is squishy on a variety of issues, or perhaps he spends too much time thinking. 5/18/98 – John Moorlach publicly spoke out against a proposed Bill from Tom McClintock (then of Garden Grove) to abolish...
Why is it that the only endorsements he has gotten are the ritual endorsements inside of Orange County? I have written ad-naseum about Scott Baugh's own self-serving angle for running his part of the drill. But - it goes deeper. Most of the GOP organizations inside...
John Moorlach raked in$237k in total value in his last few years of office. (In my home county, the total for a supervisor is about $85k). $16k for 5 years of taxpayer money in to his 401 plan. A 2.7% at 55 Pension – guaranteed by OC Taxpayers. Opposed efforts to...
Now Senator John Moorlach is out there spending Prop 63 Bond money now - helping the state incur more debt. This pattern of spending like a drunken sailor is nothing new for John Moorlach. Tom Mauk agreed Thursday to resign as the county’s highest non-elected...
Everything in politics happens for a reason. Such as Scott Baugh’s sudden turn against his long time friend and ally Don Wagner, and his “opening a committee” (wink wink) for the same congressional seat as Dana Rohrbacher and his actions at the central committee...
Don Wagner had a fundraiser that was well supported. In said fundraiser, it was clear that Don Wagner has a ton of friends, way more than John Moorlach has. It was also clear that Tim Clark, Moorlach's Chief of Staff who was twisting arms a few weeks ago and...
I don't care what the hair-splitting legal nuance is. Scott Baugh is a hypocrite. Did he call Congressman Dana Rohrbacher before taking out FEC papers to open up a committee to run for that Congressional seat? Even if he did - why then was it wrong for Greg Raths...
When I posted something similar to this in Wagner V Moorlach Round 1 - John Moorlach's supporters derided the money donated as being donated to "Lackluster" Candidates in an attempt to justify John Moorlach's self-centered laziness. This is emblematic of the...
Don Wagner has rock solid A scores from every major Conservative organization out there. These are a powerful answer to the lemmings that support incumbents regardless of merit. The people that voted to endorse Moorlach may well have been doing so out of fear for...
That the system is rigged for incumbents. Many within said establishment are unprincipled and relationships change like Bill Clinton changes mistresses. Big Government John Moorlach is now the establishment not based on the merits or based on anyone respecting or...
As of the writing of this post, the OC GOP has not endorsed a candidate yet. That is being hosted on 1/18/2016 at the behest of Senator Moorlach. Please note that Don Wagner has given the OC GOP $15,000 in just the 2013-2014 cycle alone. Moorlach? That would be...
