I’d vote for Satan and his minions before I’d vote for the former incompetent governor Jerry Brown. He has followers? Why? Are they fools? This is the guy who wasn’t paying attention in 1978 when property taxes were rising and Howard Jarvis devised a clever way to disguise his commercial property interests as a tax revolt. Then, when the tax inequity was passed, Brown all but claimed the idea was his. Get this guy out of public office.

Jerry Brown is no “environmental extremist.” I’ll be writing more about AB 32, it is not the job-killing monstrosity certain special interests portray it as. Brown’ll be the guy to kick e-Meg’s butt, and I hope we can convince him of the wisdom of single-payer health care.

York…….”The Reagan Economy, he inherited” PLEASE. That was 1970.

The fact remains that the highway conditions that you like to blame on the Gov. Brown have not improved in the thirty years since he left, under Duke, Wilson, Davis and the current governor either!

Last year, General Brown speaking at the funeral of the slain Oakland cops spoke of his “maturity” and how his previous stance on determinnet sentancing needed to be “revisited”. This is a guy who has matured and learned.

I struggle to understand how ANYONE who has lived here (My family has for 150 years) could support the likes of Whitman. I know you don’t but lighten up and take a walk in the woods as Bobby Wier told us last month!

Let’s burn the whole place down. Hotels on the beach, shit in the sea, strip malls on the mountainside. THATS THE REAL CALIFORNIA!

Sunny,

Agreed, but Brown’s environmental extremism is already killing his numbers. Whitman is ahead of him! He needs to agree to delay AB 32 or he is going to lose…

Jerry Brown isn’t the problem. Unlike whitman, Jerry has been elected to statewide office, and he has a strong following. It will be up to thousands of volunteers to get out the message for Jerry and for the future of our state.

This state can’t take another incompetent Republican like Arnold. If Whitman wins, we will be 100 billion in debt, and she will sell off the state to her rich friends.

She has no experience and no roots in CA. She knows NOTHING about running a state.

kenlaysnotdead,

Don’t get me wrong – no way I could vote for Whitman. I just wish we had more choices.

Brown’s support for AB 32 is no bueno.

Choice is good, isn’t it?

KenLay – or whomever you are…

When you’re stuck in traffic – think Jerry Brown, he destroyed freeway projects in the 1970′s when matching federal funds were available.

When you think cost overruns for development – Brown has used his office to aggressively sue to stop development as AG

When you think of budget deficits – think Jerry Brown, he took the Reagan Economy he inherited in his first term and ran it in to the ground. Brown was Arnold before Arnold was a citizen…

When you think ballot measures – Brown has been sued a few times for issuing partisan slants to titles and summaries

When you think corruption – Jerry Brown

Cronyism – Jerry Brown

Brown is a target rich environment that will get pounded by whomever the Republican Nominee is.

It’s nice too see that Meg Whitmans Millions have penetrated the most free thinkers of the Blogephere.

The normally cognizant OJB now questions Brown’s ability to beat Whitman?

I too question that, but for her campaign of propaganda what has she ever done? She ran EBAY? an internet garage sale company, that never really sold a product of its own, she did’nt vote for twenty something years.

I like Brown, politically and fundementally, but mostly because we’ve seen what inexperience brings.

As for the Green thing, this is a guy who gained the name moonbeam, for his support of satallite technology, the same stuff thats transmitting this post to you. Whats so wrong with some concern for the environment? If you listen to KFI you’d think it was as bad as the TRILLIONS we spent in Iraq, oh wait a minute they don’t mention that.

WHITMAN IS TRYING TO BUY THE SEAT!

I dunno, Art. Those all look like desperation picks, like McCain picking Sarah. Jerry Brown is the best we have in terms of experience, name, and willingness. If the best we have can’t win, so be it.
