Thoughts on Meg Whitman

[Dutchman]

We have 3 RINO's running. I LOVE living in Ca, but I have to say Az is looking better by the day. If I could just take the beach and the sierras with me I'd be in Az in a heartbeat.

[Eirerogue]

I'm counting the days until I can retire and leave CA for North Central AZ. I'll give up the beach and the Sierras for a lot less taxes and idiot politicians in Sacramento.

Don't think Newsome has a shot. No money. Whitman is a Republican in registration only.

I think we've successfully destroyed the State of CA for any business development or retention. Nevada is running ads on our TV stations about why everyone should leave CA and move to NV for better personal taxes and business development.

We're ungovernable with a Democratic majority and 2/3 vote requirement for budget passage. In the meantime, most of the CA State legislature is taking off for 2 weeks of European or Asian jaunts on money from their established 'funds', given to them by lobbyists.

Where is that moving van???

Nevada is looking better and better all the time. When I was in Vegas last week I was surprised that I was paying over 25 cents less for gas at the on highway Chevron than I could at the cheap gas place in California where I live. Now if I could just get a job in Northern Nevada, I'd leave and never look back.

+1 was in Phoenix over the weekend and gas at Chevron was $0.55 a gallon cheaper than I pay at Costco - darn CA taxes That equates to about $20 a tank difference

Las Vegas is considered Eastern Los Angeles to many in the rest of the state.

The most pro 2a candidate so far is Jerry Brown. I still can't believe it.

Heard a great radio piece on the Gov race yesterday. The thrust of the piece was 'does Jerry Brown wanted to leave his legacy as CA Gov at this time?"

Since this probably will be JB's last run (IF he runs) he'll be 79 at the end of his term. With all the major issues in the State, does he want this to be his last office and legacy position?

General consenus was no. But he's got a substantial 'war chest' and could far outspend a Gavin Newsome.

Jerry Brown filed yesterday for exploratory committee status for Gov. race. C'mon AZ!!

It get's worse:

Can Meg Whitman's eBay success translate in Sacramento? - Inside Bay Area

But in recent days, the Republican hopeful and her team have been forced to play defense amid revelations that the 53-year-old former CEO supported liberal Democratic U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer's re-election in 2004

Very true. I know a few Pro 2nd Amendment people that would, if they were in charge, deny the right to most if not all.

Yes, and Hutch also claims to be "pro-second amendment", but we know how she really stands.

Their idea on pro 2A is: I can have a gun. You can't.

Pointless......your next governor will be Jerry Brown. I was grown up when he was Moonbeam and schtupping Ronstadt, and we could do worse.

I encountered people like that at a gun rights policy conference put on by the Second Amendment Foundation.

I'm a very conservative republican and the best candidate I've heard so far is Jerry Brown. I can't believe I just wrote that. CA is SO jacked up......

The California Gov. race usually attracts a huge field of characters, mostly just people who want the publicity (remember when Mary Cary the porn star and Rodney Coleman ran? Classic CA political circus act!).
