CA-Sen: Tom Campbell is “Barbara Boxer Light”

This is what Carly Fiorina has called her opponent Tom Campbell and she is correct. Here is the transcript:

Carly Fiorina: “Tom Campbell’s wrong on the issues. He’s wrong first and foremost on the issues of taxes. He is the architect of California’s 2005 budget which created structural deficits for the state for many years to come in good times and in bad. He believes the way to close the California budget is to increase the gasoline tax by 32 cents a gallon. He has voted against tax cuts as a member of Congress. He has votes for sales tax increases, Internet taxes, gasoline taxes going back as far as the late 80’s. This is a guy who is wrong on taxes, he’s wrong on the growth of government and those issues matter tremendously not just to Republican primary voters but to the voters of California.

Carly Fiorina: “I am a fiscal conservative and he is not. Certainly I am a pro-life candidate. He is a pro-choice candidate. In fact if you look at some of his positions, I would characterize him as Barbara Boxer light only he wouldn’t have the seniority and he wouldn’t have the power.”

Carly should have just called Tom Campbell a RINO (Republican in Name Only) and be done with it. There will be little difference between Boxer and Campbell if he is nominated to face off with Babs in November.
