Brown or aide is heard slurring Whitman
Los Angeles Times ^

Posted on 10/07/2010 11:02:00 PM PDT by FloridaSunrise

In a private conversation inadvertently captured by voicemail, Democratic gubernatorial nominee Jerry Brown or one of his associates can be heard referring to his Republican opponent Meg Whitman as a "whore," saying she cut a deal protecting law enforcement pensions while the two candidates competed for police endorsements.

The comment came after Brown called the Los Angeles Police Protective League in early September to ask for its endorsement. He left a voicemail asking Scott Rate, a union official, to call him, then apparently believed he had hung up the phone. The voicemail captured the ensuing conversation between Brown and his aides.

The possibly more important story here is not that Brown called her a whore but that she is possibly making back room deals for support. Thats not the kind of repubs were looking for.

Democrats can say anything they want. Besides, he's apologized already (sorta):

“Gloria Allred”

Amazing how the ‘feminists’ have such complete and total blindness to the issues that Conservative women face. Almost like they’re more concerned about politics and grandstanding than in doing what’s right by women...hmmmm?? ;)

Only one word for that: hypocrisy.

Brown should apologize or resign from the race.

UPDATE. The LA Times is now saying that the orginal "She's a whore" outburst may have been from Jerry Brown himself!

NEXT UPDATE Jerry was calling Allred and/or her greedy latina client a whore.

I thought Jerry Brown was telling voters he’s matured.
