The California Attorney General race is shaping up to be one of the ugliest in recent memory. I was in the other room, so I don't have full context, but I heard a TV ad for Poochigian that said, more or less, "There's good and evil in the world. Jerry Brown support evil." I'll have to scour You Tube later to see if I can find it.

Attorney General is one race where I am completely comfortable with my choice. Jerry Brown has matured in many good ways since he was governor and I thought he did a very fine job as Oakland mayor so I have no qualms in voting for him.

So far the only ad I've seen, though, has been for Brown and it was utterly forgettable.

Ghoulish Delight 10-04-2006 10:22 AM

Every single ad for Poochigian has been "Jerry Brown opposes the death penalty and doesn't want killers to die. Isn't that eeeevil?" or "There have been [some number] of murders in Oakland since Jerry Brown became mayor. Can you believe he's killed that many people?!"

As a yellow dog Democrat, I will probably vote for him. However, like Arnold, Jerry Brown ran scary and inaccurate ads opposing the Three Strikes reform initiative that initially had strong public support.

I also have the nagging but unconfirmable suspicion that the federal judge who rejected the lethal injection challenge I handled did so in part out of loyalty to Brown the AG candidate who first appointed him to the municipal court.

Interesting....I have now read reports (on the Drudge Report, unconfirmed elsewhere) that the only published exchanges between Foley and the page were when he was over 18. ABC says they happened before and after, but the only ones that have been made public were when he was over 18.

And ABC gacked. They accidentally released the kids idenity on their website. Oops.

Jerry Brown's running? He's the only candidate I ever felt comfortable voting for.

There's a reason for that.
