Brown TV ad ties Whitman to Schwarzenegger

[bemildred]

Democrat Jerry Brown says his rival for governor sounds a lot like Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger — a comparison Republican candidate Meg Whitman says is true, but only to a point.

She says Brown's ad fails to acknowledge their different backgrounds — his as an actor, hers as an experienced businesswoman.

A statewide ad that began airing Tuesday shows footage of Whitman and Schwarzenegger making similar comments about their business experience, independence and leadership styles.

Whitman told reporters in Oakland on Tuesday that Schwarzenegger "missed a lot of key things" because he was primarily an actor and investor.
