Bill Simon

By now even a few Republicans may think Bill Simon may not have been the best choice for a candidate to run against Gov. Gray Davis. Not because of his lack of experience; he could do as good or better a job than what we have seen since Davis took office. It’s more a sense that in California no one could compete against the money machine Davis has assembled.
But in Simon’s favor, there is one thing for sure: He would spend the next term trying to run the state of California, not raising money to run for president of the United States.
