Democrat Jerry Brown has opened a double-digit lead over Republican Meg Whitman in the governor's race, according to a new Los Angeles Times/USC poll.
Brown was leading Whitman 52 percent to 39 percent among likely voters, expanding his lead particularly among women and Latino voters, according to the poll.
Brown, campaigning this morning at several churches in south Los Angeles, said after one stop that he is "cautiously optimistic" about his chances in November. He was campaigning with the Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom. Brown struck a populist tone, saying California is a wealthy state but that officials must "spread it out," not "suck it all up to the top."
He criticized Whitman for her scant voting record and called on congregants to cast ballots Nov. 2.
Whitman was campaigning yesterday in the Los Angeles area. She had no scheduled public events today. Subscribe to *Tea Party On Parade*

Whitman is toast. However, the money she spends on the "get out the vote" effort might help Fiorina next Tuesday.

Kalipornians DESERVE what they get if they re-elect "Moonbeam".
I despise what the libTURDS have done to that once great state.
California was a wonderful place to live as late as the mid sixties.
If my ancestors were not dead they'd have left decades ago also.

Sadly our debt will be paid for the rest of nation.
We have too many electoral votes to be ignored by any party.

Whitman and Fiorina are globalist open borders liberals, so conservatives are staying home or voting for Chelene Nightingale (AIP) and Ed Noonan (AIP). Only die-hard Republicans (McCain/bushbot libtards) will vote for Fiorina or Whitman.
The California GOP has made it crystal clear that they'd rather have Moonbeam than a conservative. The sooner they die the better.

Exactly correct.
I'd never vote for moonbeam (frustrated enviroNAZI that he is), and whitman is basically ahnuld schwarzenkennedy, with tits.
What a choice.
I'm voting for the libertarian candidate.

Check yourself before you wreck yourself you ignorant miserable lying libTURD whore.
I lived in California from the early sixties until the mid seventies.
I have family whose bones rest there you despicable slack jawed libTURD tool.
ALL of what has happened to California has happened because of the LEFT'S drooling insanity.
I SAW it, I LIVED it.
You are without any doubt one of the most ignorant disgusting libTURD tools ever born.

Now I know you are smoking crack.
Democrats have controlled one or both houses of the California state legislature forever.
The last notable California governor who could even been considered mildly "right wing" was Ronald Reagan who left office 35 years ago.
No one takes you seriously because you are either stoned, delusional, or a complete liar.

I assume she is referring to Prop. 13? If so, she's correct, the net effect of the law was to completely screw up California's housing market among other things.
On January 3, 2011 the GOP assumes responsibility for deficit spending.

Its prop 13, its term limits that has had the unintended consequence of handing inordinate power to lobbyists, its Reagan's war against education (Reagan & J. Edgar Hoover vs the University of California - pretty interesting history), its our initiative process that allows anyone who can get enough signatures including special interests to get their issue on the ballot - California is the only oil producing state that does not collect a severance tax on oil extracted from our state.

LOL! Yeah, that's what we need more taxes, NOT.
Might as well kill off the few remaining industries, so CA can be declared a total wreak, and we can get on with rebuilding from the rubble.

The problem with California is that your assinine faggot courts struck down prop whatever that was supposed to cut off funds to illegals. Now you are overrun with scummy Mexicans who think it is their beloved toilet of a country Mexico. Get rid of the illegals and your state will be fine. But you can't do that because your state is PC state and you don't want to hurt the poor little illegals feelings. Well until you say screw them and deport their asses your state will decline. And the rest of the nation will follow.
#22. To: A K A Stone (#21)
Proposition 187 also known as the Save Our State (SOS).
That’s one reason.
The other is unfunded State employee pensions.
Brown signed the ability for State workers to bargain collectively through The Dill act.
He legalized collective bargaining for the public-employee unions.
My kids have yet to even have their first jobs, yet they each owe $10,000 to unions that make sure Brown gets reelected.
Like the Mayor and managers of Bell city , Brown and the DNC raped the state for personal gain.

If it weren't for the taxes collected from the oil industry, nice conservative states like Alaska would be in deep dodo.

With the two thirds majority rule and the initiative process, California Republicans don't need a majority in the state legislature.

It was prop 187, it was struck down in a federal court, and sexual orientation had nothing to do with it - otherwise the above is accurate.
But you can't do that because your state is PC state and you don't want to hurt the poor little illegals feelings.
Well that, and the court found the law to be unconstitutional on the basis that it infringed the federal government's exclusive jurisdiction over matters relating to immigration, similar to the Supreme Court ruling in Plyler v. Doe.
Well until you say screw them and deport their asses your state will decline.
Yeah, who cares about that pesky Constitution anyway.

Re your: The Federal Judges Ruled Prop 187 Unconsitutional:
Federal Judiciary "The germ of dissolution of our federal government is in...the federal judiciary; an irresponsible body, (for impeachment is scarcely a scare-crow,) working like gravity by night and by day, gaining a little to-day and a little to-morrow, and advancing its noiseless step like a thief, over the field of jurisdiction, until all shall be usurped from the States."
