| WTG, Jerry Brown! Hopefully, I won't have to fast forward past her stupid commercials any more. | |

| I found it amusing that Google added 2 ad's about tax relief, etc. to the page. Knock one down and 2 more appear!

| ....Jerry Brown's going after her.
Not to be cynical, and I fully support going after her....think the timing has anything to do with the campaign for governor? Meg Whitman is outspending him at an astronomical rate (last I heard, Brown less than one million, Whitman more than ten million). | |

| Whitman donated 20 million to her own campaign recently. She's outspending Jerry like gangbusters. Selling all those EBay stock options. I think it's tough to run for office and win if you don't have boatloads of cash. It's her money to burn, though. | |

| Oh well, Christy - so I was off ten million <w>.
I wonder if Brown: 1) doesn't have the money or 2) thinks his name is good enough to get him elected? | |

| Jerry is following the Eliot Spitzer model of how to get elected.....I am not being sarcastic but Spitzer parlayed prominent lawsuits into the governorship.
Snowbird is right; dealing with these firms is a giant game of 'Whack-A-Mole' | |

| I have no dog in this fight, but a no name (Whitman) vs possibly the best known name in CA politics (Brown) HAS to spend way more. Unfortunately, name recognition is huge in elections. | |

| I'd rather talk about Linda Rondstadt if we're discussing Jerry Brown. | |

| I think that I remember "Governor Moonbeam" from the first time around. Why in the name of all that's holy would ANYONE want to be Governor of California NOW? | |

| Kevin, I think Linda went her own way many many many years ago. If Jerry's elected do you think he'll still live and sleep in the tiny little hovel he used to use? A I recall, he thought the Governor's mansion was too ostentacious, and wasn't there something about him sleeping on something unusual like a futon? Actually, years ago I used to do word processing for his uncle, Harold, on a regular basis, he had been an appelate court justice and helped his brother, Pat Brown, in those political maneuverings. He was a tremendously fascinating person to talk to. He came in once, sat in my new client chair, and told me I should never have a client chair that was so comfortable because the client would never leave. He was right, he would sit there and talk story as long as I let him. I still have the chair BTW. | |

| Funny, but I get virtually no complaints about her. In 17 years, I don't think I've gotten more than a couple calls.....a ton about other ones in California and she is far from the worst. | |
