Meg’s stuffed Horse and aRnie’s Trojan Horse both snorted at the announcement.

If he's "good enough" for Tom, he's good enough for me.

Still, I think he's a pu$$y-a$$ed dweeb for crying over the supposed "extortion" coming from the Whitman campaign.

[freedumb2003]

Good enough for me.

Whitman went negative so quickly everyone’s head is spinning.

I want Tom, but he comes across so badly on camera that he isn’t viable in California.

Dang, now I’m really confused. I trust the Howard Jarvis group and Tom McClintock. Howard Jarvis is for Meg and Tom is for Poizner. ??? Whom do you believe?

[truthguy]

Once again we have the following choice. We can elect Steve Poizner over Whitman and possibly lose to the Democrats (Jerry Brown) or elect Whitman and a little less likely lose to the Democrats. I think Whitman has a better chance against Brown simply because Whitman is a woman and women are a little more inclined to vote for a woman then men are to vote for men, at least in California. We will have the goofy types of women like where I work who will vote for Whitman because it would be the first woman governor of California. They ARE that frivolous. This is huge and could be decisive. Whitman just might get the vote from Democratic women

The real issue here is to keep the lunatic Jerry Brown out of the governorship. We have a fresh group of minted idiots who don't remember how terrible he was before and they are just stupid enough to vote for the lune.

The real question is how Whitman would be as governor. She would be better than Jerry Brown. She would be a little worst that Poizner. Whoever runs against Brown I will support. I'm going with Poizner against Whitman but will throw everything in against Brown. God help us.

Until a few weeks ago, I did not know that Steve Poizner was a Republican. My first reaction to hearing about him running in the GOP primary was “When did he switch parties?”.

[Maelstorm]

Tom is a good man and Steve is also. I know there are plenty who say Steve can’t win. Well that will be true if you don’t do your part. If I were Steve I’d be running against Big Government Democrats and Republicans.

[Maelstorm]

I don’t know much about Steve but it doesn’t look good. The guy doesn’t look a whole lot different than the Mayor of San Fran.

Poizner supports suspending the California Global Warming Solutions Act (AB32), a California emissions-cutting act that he believes helped skyrocket California unemployment to 2.5 percentage points above the national average.

Poizner wants the act suspended until four straight quarters of below 5.5 percent unemployment -- something that is unlikely to happen anytime soon.

Poizner attacked Whitman for praising ousted Green Jobs Czar Van Jones and for Whitman's charity foundation donating $300,000 to the Environmental Defense Fund, a group that helped write AB32 and supported the preservation of the endangered delta smelt at the expense of Central Valley farmers.

Poizner also asserted that he would confront California's welfare problem and illegal immigration problem by deploying the National Guard to the border if necessary. Poizner also criticized Whitman for endorsing liberal Democrat Barbara Boxer in her 2004 re-election campaign and for Whitman's not mentioning the word "conservative" or "Republican" in her television ads.

[Political Junkie Too]

Poizner always struck me as a liberal Republican from San Mateo. In 2004, he was the only Republican that Schwarzenegger endorsed and publicly campaigned for, refusing even to support Tom McClintock as his Lt. Governor (who was responsible for Schwarzenegger winning in the first place).

[Tempest]

Is it true that Poizner donated to Al Fore’s presidential campaign.

[CyberAnt]

What about those items being played on TV saying he consorted with the dems to undercut prop 13 ..?? How could Tom support that ..??

I personally don’t like Poizner .. so even though Tom says he’s a good guy .. I’m not sure who I’ll vote for .. but I’m definitely not voting for Meg - because she thinks Van Jones is “brilliant”; a “genius”.

We surely don’t need that guy advising Meg about anything.
