Oh My and this gaffe, reportedly, Jerry Brown’s wife who said the word will not endear him to California voters.

What will be the fall out?

California voters are getting fed up with all of the television ads and the personal BS of the Brown Vs. Whitman campaign. 

Jerry Brown is trying to cultivate some likability and this certainly won’t help him by making Whitman a sympathetic figure, particularly after her illegal alien maid flap.

Advantage Whitman, especially if she runs some ads.

MM has the story and at this point who knows how this flap will resolve. However, I don’t think Whitman will gain any votes.

Plus, the SEIU will be running television ads on Spanish language channels calling Meg a heartless bitch for not helping her illegal $23/hr maid. And, then there will be plenty of protests every where Meg goes with the signs held by, yes, you guessed it, Hispanic women dressed as maids.

So, I can guess that Whitman can forget about any Latino votes on November 2nd.

Wonder when the next polls will come out showing Jerry Brown up by 7 or 8 points?

Oh dirty politics in a close campaign is always a nasty affair. You know the story: the rich Meg Whitman running for California Governor is a hypocrite because she had an illegal alien working for her household while she has called for tougher laws against employers doing the exact same thing.

Then, there are the details where Nicky, the maid lied and submitted false documents and Meg Whitman and her doctor husband when they discovered that Nicky was illegal fired her – treating her like dirt or at least unseemingly (so Nicky claims).

Here is a video of California Republican Meg Whitman responding:

Well, if you believe the LA Times/USC poll Brown is ahead by five points (49%-44%) but there are some problems with the polling samples.

There is strong evidence why the LA Times/USC Poll is out-of-step with the California Field Poll, despite the fact that they polled voters at the same time. The Field Poll conducted interviews from September 14-21 and the LAT/USC Poll was in the field September 15-22. The most significant difference is that the LAT/USC poll under-sampled Republicans. That’s why its results differ so sharply from Field and all the other recently reported public polls, as well as our own internal polls. Field provides a far truer representation of California’s 2010 electorate, in our estimation.

My belief which is supported by the venerable California Field Poll and polling averages is that the election is very close. Look at the poll average graph below.

The guy was probably a plant.

True to his tough-guy persona, Gov. Chris Christie mixed it up today with a political naysayer, who heckled California Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman at a political rally.

Christie was concluding a town hall meeting with Whitman when an angry audience member criticized her for not taking questions.

“What are you hiding?” shouted Ed Buck, in jeans and a light shirt in the front row of the 400-person event. “You’re looking like Arnold in a dress,” he said in a reference to outgoing California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Before Whitman could respond, Christie stepped down from the stage and got in Buck’s face.

“Hey, listen. You know what. You want to yell, yell at me,” Christie said, shutting down Buck as Christie’s bodyguards calmly but quickly approached the two men. “It’s people who raise their voices and yell and scream like you who are dividing this country. We’re here to bring this country together.”

Governor Christie defused the Alinsky situation pretty well, wouldn’t you say?
