So because the republicans in this state have made a stand to not have tax increases, that makes them “excessively right wing?” Hrm. News to me.

And because CA dems are in line with WA & NY that makes them okay? I don’t follow.

I guess you haven’t seen this graph [FiveThirtyEight: Politics Done Right: Scozzafava is a Conservative Republican (by New York State standards)](http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2009/10/scozzafava-is-conservative-republican.html). California Democrats are in line with Democrats from other liberal states (that is to say, California democrats are nothing out of the ordinary). Californian Republicans are the most extreme Republicans in the country, instead of the centrist position that would be expected of Republicans from Blue states.
