Mickey Kaus?s Viability in a NutshellThis Republican Would Vote for Him Over Tom Campbell

Yesterday on his blog, Mickey Kaus, a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate, noted how the state Democratic Party is excluding him from a berth at their upcoming convention because they deem him not to be a viable candidate:

If you disagree with the California Democratic Party’s decision to apply an amorphous “viability” test to deny candidates like …well,�me, a chance to even be heard at the party convention,please email CDP Executive Director Shawnda Westly to inform her of�your views. Her email is
shawnda@cadem.org

As per that request (in a bit of a rush), I did just that.
Dear Ms. Westly,
I am a lifelong Republican who has never voted Democratic in a statewide race since moving to California in 1999. �Should Mr. Kaus win the Democratic nomination �for U.S. Senate and Tom Campbell the Republican, I will likely vote Democratic in that race given my qualms about Mr. Campbell’s associations.
But, given Mrs. Boxer’s absence of accomplishment this past 18 years as well as her mean-spirited partisanship, I could never vote for her. �Never.
If you want to make your party more viable to a partisan Republican who disagrees with Mr. Kaus about 60-76% of the time, but would vote for him over a certain Republican, you should reconsider your decision. �There are many more Republicans like myself who disagree with Mickey Kaus, but respect him. �They might join me in voting Democratic should he be your party’s nominee. �And I daresay in a Republican year, this could make the difference in a close election.
Fine, say he’s not viable. �With Mrs. Boxer’s high negatives, you’re giving my party the best shot in years to take a California Senate seat, given the anti-incumbent mood. �With Kaus as your party’s nominee, the likelihood of keeping the seat in Democratic hands grows exponentially.
All the best,�Daniel Blatt�(West Hollywood)
