4. I think Angelides can beat any candidate
and will be a good governor.

5. Is the talk about Robin Williams serious or just fluff?
Schwarzenegger is vulnerable, but some Democrats worry their only candidates so far aren't 'exactly the charisma twins'

Friday, August 19, 2005



With Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's popularity plummeting, a growing number of Democrats are asking whether state Treasurer Phil Angelides and Controller Steve Westly should be the party's only choices for governor.

Prominent Democrats ranging from San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom and former Rep. Leon Panetta to non-politicians such as businessman Steve Jobs and comedian Robin Williams are mentioned in the quiet conversations of Democratic activists, although no one is saying anything -- at least publicly -- about jumping into the race.

6. I'm supporting Phil but I'm reserving judgment on future candidates
If Warren Beatty jumps into the race, he's more liberal.

7. I'm not sure who is running
And in any event I would want to hear more from them before making a decision.
