When will a Democrat finally step forward in California's gubernatorial race?
Meg Whitman is trying to buy California. She built her career as a bargain hunter. Meg only buys if she thinks she can sell what she has bought at a profit. Is she planning to sell us Californians like she sells stuff on E-Bay? Cheap and fast?

Based on Meg Whitman's past performance, if wants to buy California, it is probably because we are worth a lot to her more than she is spending on her campaign.

What is Meg Whitman's real plan for California? How much money does she expect to make from buying us?

Where is the Democrat who will stand against her?

Will we finally find out at the California State Democratic Convention in April?

3. Jerry Brown is running
but we don't see any ads from him because he's running unopposed. Whitman is in a fight with Poizner, so she has to spend a lot of money she won't have for the general election. Brown is saving money right now, which is good, since Whitman is loaded and the corps can spend whatever they want.

5. Thanks. The video was great.
I expected Jerry Brown to run, but hadn't heard that he announced. He'll make a great governor. I think he will win.

6. Former Exec. Dir. of MoveOn is announcing his candidacy !

but does Peter Schurman have a chance? CA absolutely CANNOT have another RW Corporate governor. It will be the end of the Golden State. eMeg wants to buy the Office, then cut every single thing left to cut (which isn't much).
