To give a note back to a few folks who think that this commentary is confusing; it should not be! I think that having diverse slate of individuals that have varying degrees of opinions is a good thing. Yes, some on the slate I am endorsing may bee a bit two far right for my taste but as a group I like them better than the same group that has been controlling the local machine for too long. Is it perfect, no nothing is; but it sure beats the alternative hands down. Thanks for all the comments.

I particularly liked the word “fresh” you used to describe the candidates on my particular Slate. These particular ladies and gents, all of us varying ages, different civic backgrounds, in some cases having just recent acquaintance, are most assuredly going to bring some good ol’ oxygen into the odiferous gangrene of the “stranglehold in place for years by a few entrenched party leaders”. I’m taking your calling we candidates “sensible, pragmatic people,” and “unsullied”, as big-time compliments! Tana Lampton – Candidate Co. Central Committee (38th AD) Thank you, Mr. Bossert, for endorsing me, in your article dated May 14, 2012.

I am new to politics in this valley, but have spent my life in Santa Clarita and am proud to have an opportunity to serve this great community. As a central committee member I want to see the GOP become even stronger through diversifying involvement rather then consolidating power. Your endorsement will help all of us on the ballot to achieve a stronger GOP. Dave,

It’s the current establishment of Haueters and such that claim to be “conservative” that aren’t. When did “social” conservative become a bad thing? Fix the social issues and the fiscal fixes will fall into place… Interesting , but confusing commentary….I personally know Scott Wilk and these folks listed for the WRB endorsement for the Republican 38th AD CC and they ARE social conservatives – which is exactly WHY I’m voting for them….
