What a laugh. Whitman has now officially pumped $150mil of her our lettuce into her campaign and she is trailing Geraldo Brown by 5. Jerry barely put up a campaign until a month ago. This ad is about to hit and will not bode well for NutMeg. She hired all the same folk as Schvartzie. Dig...

Additionally, as much as people loathe Babs Boxer she is now several points in front of Fiorina. Carly ran a (s)lackluster campaign and deserves nothing.
Then again, we ain't NY. :lol:

just caught that Arnold ad on TV today. If that's all Brown had done in his campaign he'd probably win (and he didn't have to do much more).
JBone in 2010, who'd da thunk it. I thought he'd retired as a gentleman mayor to Oakland. Turns out he was just getting his second wind.
Then again, we ain't NY. :lol:
You would not like NY.....the rent is too damn high! :lol:
The sad part is, this nut is NOT our most bizzare candidate!

Heaven help those of us that reside in The Peoples Socialist Republic of Mexifornia. Pray for us, even if you are not devout, we need all the help we can get. Comrade Barbara "Dont call me ma'am" Boxer for six more years of radical far left policies that have left the state in ruins? And if you think AaaaNold was bad, just wait until the old hippy moves into the top spot. Governor Moonbeam, here we come again?
Did Moonbeam ever finally exhale?

If Prop 23 goes down and Jerry B gets elected we may very well see the end of CA within a couple of years.
Every other Dem must have figured NutMeg would stroll into SackyMeno. I mean Jerry Brown. We're lookin' at 4 years of this goon?

Every ballot initiative that reaches into the pockets of the states citizens must be defeated, or else even more jobs will be lost and things will get even worse. Yes on Props 23 and 26, No on Props 24 and 25. Moonbeam, Babs, and bad initiative results will only hasten the demise of the state.

States like California and NY act insane. I mean Jerry Brown and Andrew Cuomo are the likely next govenors, are you kidding me? This is the change that is needed for these states?
Maybe Whitman will pull it out but I have my doubts. In these big states having the public sector and unions in your back pocket is a big plus that is hard to overcome no matter how many millions are spent.

The NY self described tea party Republican tangled with a Newscorp owned paper. Meg Whitman is trying to buy an election with her own money. That almost never works anywhere. She would been a lot better off raising money like most other candidates.

Because Repubs have given up on these two states
They believe that they deserve everything they get. Not saving them from themselves is the ultimate punishment. end of story.

don't know, but I see nothing wrong with Whitman or the fact she is spending a lot of her own money. For me that is a plus, I admire that. Nobody bought her.
I frankly don't know why California wouldnt go for someone like that over ex gov moonbeam.

Why is it that ultra-weathly always want to spend their money and start right at the top? (That's a rhetorical question.)
Wouldn't it be better to run for some less powerful offices and learn the ropes? Then, if you feel like you did a good job and your constituents feel like you did a good job then maybe it is time to run for a more powerful office.

It doesn't really matter in California who the governor is, I think everyone knows that by now, the legislature holds all the cards and they're as intractable a beast as you'll ever find.
If I give the populace any credit, and it's probably too much -- it's that Brown at least has possibility of making the legislature do things, even if only a few of them have any hope of being non-destructive. He's a pro political operator in at least some fashion. Meg comes across as very weak, hard not to believe the legislature would utterly run her over. Her ideas don't really matter. Neither do Browns, incidentally.
It's partly throw the bums out mentality, and Whitman is too close to Arnold, its also just looking for an operator, rather than a moosehead on the wall that nobody listens to.

whos fault?
Calif and NY are the absolute worst, when it comes to Lib type entitlement programs and since things are going SOUTH for these two States, the people in office try to put blame on others, namely Rep.
So your question ask for respectable people to , all of the sudden, appear from nowhere. I think you just might be better than what your question implies. We need your help, now.
It will take some time to make a turn, NJ is trying, wont happen overnite.

good points. I forgot about the situation with the strong legislature out there.

How much time did Barack Obama spend learning the ropes? Seven years as a state senator and less than one full term as a US Senator is all. Sorry, but being a law professor or community organizer is of no help in preparing for the presidency. His lack of experience is sure showing, since he is obviously in way over his head.

I agree. It's sad to see what's happening in NY and So. Cal. I do think that Whitman is a good candidate. If Brown wins it will prove that the majority of Californians are not aware of how bad the situation is.
Interesting scenario, with Cuomo as Governor nothing is going to change in NY and I have to wonder if New Jersey is going to reap the benefits, such as businesses moving from New York to Jersey. They usually head down south but certainly Jersey has taken from NY in the past (Jets/Giants) and with Christie in, it wouldn't surprise me to see a lot of folks cross the river.
NY is beyond help.
The entire state government is 100% corrupt and worthless.
It will never change.
What NY needs to do is make NYC a separate state and let the rest of us take care of ourselves. We will never have a fair government as long as NY decides who it is. We have little in common wit the city and need to have a government made up of people not blinded by the Big Apple.
I even have a neat new name for us in the rest...New Hope! :D

WTH? This guy's a phony AND an ex postal worker!~ Don't tell me - mosty, is that you??????
NEW YORK —
The rent may be too damn high, but not for New York gubernatorial candidate Jimmy McMillan.
McMillan, whose is running for the Governor of New York on the "Rent is Too Damn High" ticket, hasn't paid rent since the 1980s.
According to a report published by NBC New York, the 64-year-old postal worker -- now retired -- has been living rent-free in his Flatbush apartment in exchange for maintenance work under an agreement with his landlord.

Are we talking about the "Blue Bayou" girl? The far left loon that got kicked out of a Las Vegas hotel a few years ago for injecting a rambling speech into her act praising Michael Moores Fahrenheit 9/11? That and a bunch of other far left looney stuff? Yup, her and Moonbeam sure seemed like they were meant for each other, too bad it did not last. Did really like her music, one of the few from the rock/pop era that I cared for.
