Naturally, I would be pleased to have whatever advice and cooperation that you and the President's staff can provide, but I will fully understand that whatever action you take will be based on your perception of what is in the nation's best interest. I would like to think I can be a much better Senator than Sam Hayakawa, Barry Goldwater, Jr., or the President's daughter, but, most importantly, I think I can give you better assurance of defeating Jerry Brown and retaining the seat in Republican hands than any of the other candidates.

Stopped campaigning: November 7, 1972 - When Richard Nixon was re-elected president Strategy: Run to the right of President Richard Nixon, exposing his vulnerability on the conservative wing of the Republican Party. Make a credible showing to build the party for success in future elections. Best finish: Third place in Idaho (28,869 votes - 9.3 percent) Total votes: 1,099,482 Amount raised: $533,000 Current residence: Washington, Virginia and Washington, D.C.

Officially changed his registration from the Republican Party to the American Party upon receiving the latter's presidential nomination, thereby making him the first and only member of the American Party to serve in Congress. Elected to the California State Senate in 1964, John Schmitz made a name for himself by advocating conservative causes that other Republicans feared to support. He was the first member of the ultra-conservative John Birch Society to serve in the body. When asked about his membership in the group, Schmitz Jokingly replied that he "had to do something to get the middle-of-the-road vote" in conservative Orange County.

    COTCHETT, PITRE & McCARTHY, LLP Winter 2014 ADVOCATES FOR JUSTICE San Francisco Bay Area • Sacramento • Los Angeles • Washington, D.C. • New York HUGE VERDICTCPM FOR CHILDREN IN LEAD PAINT CASE: $1.15 BILLION FOR REMOVAL OF LEAD IN HOMES In January, Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge James P. Kleinberg entered a $1.15 billion judgment against three national lead paint man- ufacturers. The monies will be used in 10 Cali- fornia cities and counties to remove lead paint from pre-1978 homes. Joe Cotchett and Nancy Joe Cotchett Fineman led the CPM team, which also includ- ed Brian Schnarr, JoAnne Lein, Laurie D’Elia and Kristen Lein. Along with public counsel and other private counsel, they tried this public nuisance case in a six week court trial involving Nancy Fineman 30 witnesses as well as historical and medical evidence. This landmark decision will dramatically improve the lives of children, most of them poor and minority, to hold the lead paint companies responsible for promoting lead in paint while knowing it was toxic and causes brain damage. This decision comes after 14 years of vigorous litigation, including going to the Court of Appeal twice and the California Supreme Court before trial. It will now be appealed again, according to the paint company defendants. Brian Schnarr VICTORY FOR OLD GROWTH REDWOODS OVER BIG TRUCKS AGAINST CALTRANS Pete McCloskey Philip Gregory The California Court of Appeal ordered CALTRANS to stop all work to widen Highway 101 through Richardson Grove State Park and comply with California law. The Park is home to ancient redwood trees 300 feet tall and thousands of years old.
