Michael Finnegan And Seema Mehta — Analysis: Kashkari struggles to hit partisan balance in debate with California


Brown and Kashari are both positioned as fiscal conservatives and social liberals, which reflects the preference of California voters, the majority of whom are socially liberal but hate the state's high taxes — "the California premium."

It's an uphill fight for Kashari, who is an outlier in today's GOP, but he will get a lot of campaign cash from Silicon Valley.

    From Noonan on Joan Rivers:

    "She was a Republican, always a surprising thing in show business, and in a New Yorker, but she was one because, as she would tell you, she worked hard, made her money with great effort, and didn’t feel her profits should be unduly taxed."

    this tax issue is the big deal with MANY people in the GOP...

    It's the reason that traditionally one party has been the party of capital and the other the party of labor. But where campaigns are financed by donations, both parties become the party of capital and fight for control using interest politics and wedge issues.
