Inside Poltics
Gerald Parsky, described in yesterday's New York Times as President Bush's "closest adviser in California," lashed out at Republican gubernatorial nominee Bill Simon on Wednesday, suggesting that Mr. Simon is an "extreme conservative" who probably cannot be elected.
Reporter Richard L. Berke reports that Mr. Parsky "said he was hoping, but not convinced, that Mr. Simon would run enough of a broadly based campaign" against Democratic incumbent Gray Davis.
"A lot will depend on how the campaign is run," Mr. Parsky said. "If you are an extreme conservative, you cannot win in California."
Mr. Simon will win, he added, only "if he is prepared to adopt the formula I describe" to broaden the party.
