So what's your best guess as to who our new Governor will be?

Should I tremble in fearful anticipation or relax about at least this one thing?

1. I pray Brown...

Meg's non-existent voting record shows she isn't really interested in the people of California. Her corporate record shows she's not really interested in providing jobs for people. The people she's dealt with are crooks.

We're all pretty tired of paunchy rich white men running things... I don't think a paunchy rich white woman without a lick of sense stands a chance.


That said, I've been fooled before... I would have sworn "we" were more intelligent than to vote for The Governator.

2. lol. i think "we" were...

...unfortunately, there was a big group (within la and orange counties) that were seemingly impressed by his "star status." :eyes:

most democrats i know, did not vote for him. it also seems that the competition didn't run very strong campaigns, making themselves more present to the public, etc. thankfully, he'll be history soon. :)

5. Arnold also benefited from the rigged "recall Gray/instantly elect NEW gov" process

that was used by the Cali GOP to overturn the re-election of a Democratic governor. The Enron electrical grid sabotage(which Gray Davis had no power at all to do anything to stop)also helped.

It was basically an electoral coup d'etat.

3. I think Brown will pull it out..

Meg Whitman is a total orc. Nasty and brutish, rude and dark-hearted.

And Jerry's grown a lot.

Please, god.

4. I agree. It'll be close -- and nasty.

6. Brown.

He has the other candidate outsmarted. If he doesn't win, then we have real problems with our elections system being compromised. It already is, but it's not as bad as NC.

7. Too many Californians are suffering financially to vote for Marie Antoinette.

8. Probably brown, but I'd prefer none of the above after his announcement today.

9. Jerry will win by over 4 points.

10. Just read article that said he has only 5 paid staffers

and she has 60...and that the younger people don't know who he is. I hope he starts a internet campaign or some good ads to let the young that aren't paying attention like here.

I used to live in CA and was there while he was gov, he was great.

11. I don't know who will win, but I do know it will be a nasty race!
