Solorio to promote Lowenthal for Congress, in Little Saigon, on August 3

Termed-out Assemblyman Jose Solorio surely didn’t work this hard to elect Joe Dovinh during the 74th Assembly District’s open primary – but he is pulling out all the stops to help State Senator Alan Lowenthal, the Democratic nominee for the 47th Congressional District.

Solorio will be appearing with Lowenthal in Little Saigon tomorrow, ostensibly for his “Capitol in your Corner event,” but he is really going to be trying to drum up support for Lowenthal.  Here is Solorio’s press release: Continue reading→

Assemblyman Jose Solorio is apparently working overtime to promote State Senator Alan Lowenthal, the Democratic Party’s nominee in the 47th Congressional District, which includes Little Saigon.

Solorio is termed out this year.  He worked hard in the June primary to elect Tom Daly, who is the Democratic Party’s nominee in the 69th Assembly District.  Solorio did very little to help the only moderate Hispanic candidate, Santa Ana Council Member Michele Martinez.  She ended up doing poorly, coming in fourth place, behind Daly, Republican nominee Jose Moreno, and union hack Julio Perez.

For a guy who likes to brag about his Latino roots, Solorio sure does get enthusiastic about white candidates.  Here is Solorio’s pro-Lowenthal pitch: Continue reading→

t’s a truth that Americans understand, almost instinctively. The little things are what really matter. Most people won’t reveal a character flaw in something huge for obvious reasons. But that same person tells a lot about himself if you have the chance to see how he behaves in little things.

It’s important to know how a man behaves in the little things because that same man will also have some big things to deal with. If he fails us in something small, it’s likely just an annoyance. But if he fails in something big, that’s a different story. So we need to know what a man’s character is before we give him the keys to something big. Continue reading→

It Matters Who Governs

By: Steve Foley

Four little words. But they are filled with both history and potential.

It matters that Carter was elected in 1976. It matters even more that Reagan was elected in 1980. It matters that Al Gore lost in 2000. It matters that Marco Rubio, Mike Lee and Allen West went to Washington in 2010. The same significance present in the last 35 years applies in 2012 and beyond. It matters who governs. It always has. It always will. Continue reading→
