Anyone now thinking Sarah will NOT be running for President against Obama in 2012?

I am not really surprised as the Democrats have not really been motivated like they were when Obama was running two years ago.

Just got back from Willie Brown’s annual pre-election breakfast in San Francisco — a place for donors and pols to schmooze. Even Guv Schwarzenegger showed up (to a standing O, no less).

After we fought through the line of folks there to kiss Willie’s ring afterwards, we asked the Da Mayor about something one of the morning’s speakers, former Gov. Gray Davis campaign czar Garry South, said about the lack of a Democratic ground operation.

South, who also ran Brown’s erstwhile primary opponent Gavin Newsom’s gov campaign, also praised Republican Meg Whitman for setting up an “operation unlike anything we’ve ever seen in California.”

Willie agreed — about the Dems.

“I do not believe that Jerry Brown has a ground operation,” Willie said. He also wonders if it is a good idea for the Dems to rely so heavily on labor for their ground operation. We wrote about labor’s efforts microtargeting efforts here.

South told the gathering that unless Jerry Brown has a lead of 7 or 8 points going into election day, “we’re in serious trouble.”

A Labor based GOTV (Get Out the Vote) campaign for Barbara Boxer will NOT be as effective as the Obama ground operation in 2008. How effective it is, may very well decide the election of Carly Fiorina.

If the polls show a few points, within the margin of error, lead for Barbara Boxer going into the last weekend, she is likely toast.

And, Ami Bera is a California physician?

Ami Bera, the Democratic nominee in the 3rd Congressional District, didn’t cast a vote for federal healtAmi Berah care legislation. But that’s not stopping critics from blasting the first-time candidate over the Democrat-backed plan.

American Crossroads, a conservative group with ties to GOP strategist Karl Rove, is airing a spot saying the Elk Grove doctor doesn’t think the overhaul of the nation’s health care system goes far enough.

The ad, posted below, claims that the legislation championed by President Barack Obama will result in billions of dollars in new taxes, higher insurance premiums and steep cuts to Medicare.

Ami Bera is a physician but not really a practicing one – an educator and former County Health Director = a paper pushing administrator with an MD degree.

Wow and the Obama/Pelosi loving Democrat has never run or held elected office before.

Not a good choice for California’s Congressional District #3.

Congressman Dan Lungren, a former California Attorney General who has EVEN been endorsed for re-election by the Left-leaning Sacramento Bee is the much better candidate.

Carly Carly fiorina is welcoming Vice President Joe Biden back to California in order to campaign and raise money for Democrat Senator Barbara Boxer.

From the press release:

The Carly for California campaign today welcomed Vice President Joe Biden back to California for the second time in the last month in yet another attempt to rescue Barbara Boxer’s political career by launching a new Web video titled “Zero,” highlighting Biden and Boxer’s refusal to admit the failure of the economic stimulus plan they championed and their utter lack of understanding about what it takes to create jobs for the people they were elected to serve.

“Joe Biden and Barbara Boxer are proof that more time spent in elected office does not translate into the ability to create more jobs. After more than six decades in the insular world of Washington politics, Biden and Boxer still don’t understand that government doesn’t create jobs – and that’s bad news for the 2.2 million out-of-work Californians who are paying the price for the failed policies of Barbara Boxer,” said Carly for California Press Secretary Andrea Saul. “But instead of looking to the private sector to stimulate the kind of long-term job creation our nation needs to put our fellow Americans back to work, Joe Biden and Barbara Boxer are yet again fighting side by side to save one job and one job only: Barbara Boxer’s.”

Wonder if Slow Joe is up for a GAFFE today?
