Ayn Randian blogger Pamela Geller endorses Chuck DeVore for US Senate in California GOP primary

From Eric Dondero:

Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs, a contributor to NewsMax and frequent guest on Fox News, has come out for libertarian-conservative Republican Chuck DeVore in the California primary for US Senate; the Barbara Boxer seat. Republicans Carly Fiorna and former Rep. Tom Campbell are also in the race. Campbell has come under fire recently for having once accepted a $500 contribution from a jailed Islamic Jihadist.

Wrote Geller in a blog post two days ago:
Forgive me for not talking up Chuck DeVore earlier. I have been watching him for awhile and I love him. He is going against that car alarm of a politician, Barbara Boxer, and RINO Carla Fiorina.

He is a tea party favorite and an Atlas favorite as well.
Geller was particularly impressed with Assemblyman DeVore's strong criticisms of Muslim students at UC-Irvine who recently tried to block a speech on campus by Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren. 11 Members of the Muslim Student Union were arrested. DeVore also criticized the group of supporting the terrorist organization Hamas, and actively fundraising for the organization.

Geller's previous endorsements include her longtime friend and ally Lt. Col. Allen West, an economic libertarian and staunch critic of radical Islam, running for Congress in Florida. DeVore, is also a Military Veteran, officer in the Army Reserves.

In the legislature DeVore has been a champion tax fighter and budget cutter, as well as a fierce opponent of nanny-state laws such as smoking bans and bans on trans fats.

Yay! This is great news. Geller is influential and will help DeVore.

DeVore is dead meat.

The California Field Poll breaks down the GOP vote for DeVore.

9% - in Southern California

2% - in Northern California

The fact of the matter is he is a nobody with little support and no money.

Eric, thanks for getting me to check out Chuck DeVore.

Turns out he is the antiwar choice, since he is the only one of the three who is vocally opposed to the surge in Afghanistan.

Fiorina attacked him over it at last Friday's debate.
