Jerry Brown, Meg Whitman debate. & the winner is
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | 9/28/10 | Debra J. Saunders

Posted on 09/28/2010 8:02:21 PM PDT by SmithL

Jerry Brown.

Meg Whitman was too canned and promised too much.I am still waiting to see a sign that Whitman understands the issues a layer deeper than her consultant-driven talking points. And when you try to add up her promises, well, they don't add up.

I want a governor who will tell voters what they don't want to hear.

May I suggest that it would be better for a CommieCRate to be holding the rains when Kalifornia goes belly-up than a R brand.
Meg is a RINO, therefore, incapable of fixing the root problems.

So the Chronicle thought Moonbeam won . I am shocked . Out of saters who hate cali , I'm shocked . Wing-nuts who hate whitman , I'm shocked . People who are stupid enough to think and SF old news outlets employ a Conservative , not surprised . Enough with the geezers . Fllacid old men who never held a job and don.t know when to quit are tiresome .

What are you talking about ?

Meg Whitman is business woman and boringly practical but not as bad are your carrying on about.

I understand that she is a poor choice - Californians lack judgment and character, so they elect Boxers and Feinsteins and nominate Fiorinas. Nevertheless, I lived in CA when Moonbeam was governor. At least back then he was entertaining to watch, but he hasn’t improved with age. Today he is just an aging, used up lefty. I don’t see how Whitman could possibly be worse than that.

Brown will raise our taxes, sign every crazy Libtard idea that comes down the pike from the Democrat controlled Legislature and outlaw our firearms. Bet on it...

At least we have a fighting chance to Veto some of the crazy Progressive crap if Whitman is Governor.

Throw the baby out with the bathwater to make a point, I think not.

There are 2 categories of posts in this thread.
1) Posters who have actually lived in CA and know how bad governor moonbeam was.
2) Frustrated “pure” conservatives who hate Whitman.

There are more than 2:

3) Noobs who try to paint people into little boxes if they don't toe the party line.

4) Campaign hacks whose heads explode when anything negative about their candidate is posted

5) Concerned Californians who feel they have no good choices in this election

6)...

Someone thinks Californians aren't, in general, easily persuaded of pie in the sky as a practical attainment?

Hmm ~ most of 'em are Democrats and are willing to believe 10 outrageous things before lunch, and 100 after!

Ah... a DU troll. How do I know apart from the vulgarity? You can’t even spell “flaccid.”

Surprise, Cali already went belly up. Now's the time to start getting rid of all the Leftwingtards. Start with Brown ~ send in the State police to go after the legislature ~ toss 'em all into the sea.

Start the state over ~ after you check their IDs.

Forget the third.

The trolls who pretend to conservative but are Brown/ Dem really want to spread dissatisfaction and hope to
depress and stop people from voting against
evil Moonbeam Brown and his UNION GOON army.

I saw a clip of a video online not too terribly long ago.

Meg Whitman was on stage with Mitt Romney being interviewed by a gentlemen. Mitt Romney was probably campaigning for Meg Whitman in California.

What stood out to me during that interview ... Mitt Romney said that when he was interviewing Meg Whitman for a position at Bain Capital, he was very impressed with the tough questions that she asked.

You might want to vote for governor moonbeam as a protest vote for California voters not picking the most conservative candidate.

So what ~ if you have Brown back in charge he'll teach your children to smoke, drain your swimming pools, give your garages to Arizona Mexicans, and otherwise do dumb things, stupid stuff, and become a national embarrassment to everyone.

It's your chance to dump the idiots.
