Still no explanation other than the D by his name.

Our state prospered during his time as Governor. We added 1.5 Million jobs, our economy grew exponentially.

Meanwhile Meg Whitman didnt vote.

Yeah, that is why Jerry Brown carried on to the Senate -- his reputation as governor was such a success that in his next election, he won handily.

Oh, wait, that's right - he was rejected by the state and labeled as a failure. Lemme guess, you're 29?

LOL...actually her spending hundreds of millions of dollars and Jerry Brown hardly opening his wallet is a sign of fear if I ever saw one.

She doesnt even do interviews, or wants to debate. Meanwhile I heard Jerry Brown on KGO this morning taking grueling questions on the air as he does every week since he was Mayor of Oakland and then as AG.

She hides behind her money and the talking heads that surround her but soon she will have nowhere to run as the election day gets closer and she is forced to either open her damn mouth or ****.

Also, she is running ridiculously pro-illegal ads in Spanish and then anti-illegal ads in English-and the CA Democratic Party is calling her out for that today at a press conference in LA. Another black eye.

Prepare for a rude awakening come November.

I read earlier this week that it was a dead heat with Brown leading by only 1%. Polls change as we know but there is concern that Jerry needs to get a bit more fired up\ enthusiastic. Whitman may be taking a beating in the media and the nurses are relentlessly attacking her but she does have a vast amount of TV ad money.

In classic Republican form, she is going to pick fights with Nurses, Teachers, Police Officers and Firefighters.

Real Smart.

Yeah, Arnold learned real fast not to mess with the unions when every one of his propositions were rejected by the California voters. The unions have a lot of power in California and the voters are very sympathetic to the police, firemen\women\ teachers\ nurses, etc [but not too much sympathy for the prison guards].

Wherever Whitman goes a bunch of nurses demonstrate in costumes dressed like a queen even with wigs that look like Whitman's hair, mocking her for being a snobby elitist. Those imagines do a lot of damage to Meg.
