Who is Gray Davis?

He was the eldest of five children, driven to meet a mother's high expectations and distinguish himself from a father who abandoned the family.

The product of a Catholic upbringing and the Vietnam War who served as straight man to California's "Governor Moonbeam" in the 1970s, he's long felt others were quick to blame him for what went wrong and slow to appreciate what he'd done right.

A fall guy for the Democrats, a stepping stone for Ruz, or a target for Arhnuld?

The last part sounds like a job resume-- he'll need it.

* 1970-Present, Mr. Rodger's evil twin.

The resume left out the most important fact:

Gray-out Davis is an idiot.

Who is Gray Davis?

Nerd, crimminal, faggot, Democrat.

If he was a Captain in the 67/69 period, he was a lifer. I suspect he was an officer from 1967 to some time in 1969 and that his highest attained rank was Captain. That would mean he wasn't a lifer, just a draft-dodger!

"If he was a Captain in the 67/69 period, he was a lifer."

If you listen/look at his ad campaigns, serving in the military is a highlight of his achievements/credentials.

O-3 in '67 would have had him commissioned around '62 or '63.

Hmmm...

Hi! My Name Is Gray Davis!

This article is sympathetic, almost an apologia for Davis -- positioning him as a victim of circumstances and partisanship.

But, even at that, he clearly comes across as a loser.

Note: not "tragic figure". Loser.

"To stay in school, Davis signed up for ROTC. That took him to the Vietnam War after college and law school."

I really think it is unfair to call him a draft-dodger. That's a pretty loaded term. I don't know if the man saw combat or not, but draft-dodger is extreme.

This fellow is a bad governor, he's not the personification of all evil. Let's get a horizon line going here.

[South40]

Not who, but what.

I agree - compared to his current political advisor (Bill Clinton), Gray Davis is a saint!

[jocon307]

Yeah, thanks. Even bill clinton is not the personification of all evil. That wife of his, now she's another story!

[Lizavetta]

Now Gray Davis, 60, a middle-of-the-road Democrat who rose carefully through the ranks of state politics

Middle of the road, my ass.
