Today's ad count so far in CA.....(Whitman vs Brown)

[Bennyboy]

Whitman 22. Brown 1 (first Brown ad I have seen so far).....

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. Quality tops quantity, IMHO of course...nt

[Bennyboy]

2. Well he is losing on both counts there.

His ad is nothing much IMO. "Won't raise taxes unless voted". Seems like he is kind of playing their game.

5. "Live within our means", etc.

Which one's the Dem again? :shrug:

[Bennyboy]

3. 2 more for Whitman..0) for Brown...

since my OP.

It is a deluge and all negative attacks on Brown....

4. I'm for Whitman Samplers & Dick Whitman (Mad Men), but Meg Whitman

(as they say all the time on NPR) not so much.

6. You would have to put her ahead of Charles Whitman

the University of Texas tower shooter -- but not by a whole lot.

7. I really fail to see the motive for her run, other than there being nothing

else left to "win", just like Arnold.

8. it doesn't matter how many laps you lead

as long as you lead the last one. brown planned to start late. based on the fact that americans' have the attention span of a gnat, i think he's spending wisely. let whitman blow her wad early.

9. Yep he did not want to waste his money..let her blow her money first

and he does have the advantage of having been governor back when California was prosperous & had really great schools:)

Our flirtations with republican governors has RUINED the place..

Since 1917, we have only HAD 24 years with democratic governors
