Chuck DeVore's Quixotic Attempt to Twitter and Parody-Video His Way Into the U.S. Senate

He points to his first successful electoral victory: the 2004 Republican primary for the state assembly seat he currently holds. Favored heavily at the time was Cristi Cristich, a darling of moderate Republicans who outspent DeVore about 2-1 and ran with the support of the New Majority, the then-new PAC created by conservatives who thought the local GOP needed to move to the center instead of the right. “Cristi used a traditional campaign: the best consultants, the glossiest mass-mailers. I raised money, but mostly relied on volunteers. We won by 20 points. Money helps in politics, but it’s not the only thing.”
