CA-Gov: Meg Whitman, The Illegal Alien Maid and the Social Security Letter with Whitman’s Spouse’s Handwriting On It
Today’s Meg Whitman Presser on Nicky, the illegal alien maid flapMM 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?

CA-Gov: Meg Whitman and Nicky the Illegal Alien Maid
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:
The bottom line is whether this hurts Meg Whitman’s campaign for California governor?Probably, a little.
But, if California voters cannot get past this obvious set up and dirty trick then they deserve the calamity which Jerry Brown and his merry band of union controlled Democrats will deliver.

CA-Gov Poll Watch: Is Jerry Brown Really Ahead of Meg Whitman?
California Attorney General and Democrat nominee for Governor Jerry Brown’s latest television ad. In this ad Brown attempts to reinvent himself again (LIES to voters) about increasing taxes and local control of governmentWell, 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.
Pollster Interactive CA-Gov Poll Average Graph (Meg Whitman 45.7% Vs Jerry Brown 44.8%)
In my various social ventures (in person) outside the blogosphere nobody and I mean nobody is discussing Jerry Brown or Barbara Boxer – absolutely no idol conversation about the coming elections at all. There are no signs, bumper stickers or anything in the lefty parts of Los Angeles. I cannot foresee an enthusiastic turnout for the Democrats in November – at least not in heavily Democratic Los Angeles County.
This is a very good sign for Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina.

CA-Gov Video: New Jersey Governor Chris Christie Confronts Meg Whitman Heckler
New Jersey GOP Governor Chris Christie goes after a heckler of California Republican Governor nominee Meg WhitmanTrue 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?

CA-Gov Field Poll: Brown 41% Vs Whitman 41% Vs Undecided 18%
Pollster’s interactive California Governor’s Poll with Meg Whitman 45.9% Vs. Jerry Brown 44.4% on averageAfter all of the $million spent by Meg Whitman, the Republican and, Jerry Brown, the Democrat this race is tied – a dead heat. The venerable California Field Poll in pdf format is here.
There are really no surprises in the cross-tabs.
I think this race is going to come down to the enthusiasm factor rather than paid television media in the weeks before the race. In this, Meg Whitman should have the edge, since voters are angry and angry voters VOTE.

CA-Gov: Bill Clinton Still Feels Sorry for Jerry Brown Endorses Him for Governor
This video features an heated debate between Bill Clinton and Jerry Brown during the 1992 Democratic Primaries. Things get personal when Brown attacks HillaryDoes anyone REALLY think that Bill Clinton will push this flap aside? I think Bill Clinton pathetically feels sorry for Governor Moonbeam.
Not really but Bill knows that Obama is weak and Hillary might be able to make a come back – so he will play the game.
Former President Bill Clinton endorsed Jerry Brown’s bid to become governor on Tuesday, saying he and Brown had put the ugliness from their 1992 primary battle behind them and that Republican Meg Whitman’s ad that featured him was misleading.
“I strongly support Jerry Brown for governor because I believe he was a fine mayor of Oakland, he’s been a very good attorney general, and he would be an excellent governor at a time when California needs his creativity and fiscal prudence,” Clinton said in a statement to The Times.

CA-Gov Video: Jerry Brown Portrays Meg Whitman as Pinocchio
California Democrat Attorney General Jerry Brown’s latest television ad depicting Meg Whitman as PinocchioJerry Brown is hitting back at Republican Gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman after she ran television ads featuring Bill Clinton clips that call the former Governor Jerry Brown a liar on Proposition 13, raising taxes and running a California budget deficit.
But, although some of Clinton’s assertions have been examined and clarified, not all of Whitman’s ad is false. Besides, I remember Jerry Brown, the Proposition 13 tax revolt and his blatant flip-flop. A classic Jerry Brown re-invention.
So, Governor Moonbeam goes personally negative against Whitman highlighting issues where he has blatantly spun the truth or outright lied.
Nice……and good luck with that Jerry.
Here is Brown’s other television ad that also will begin on California television this evening.

Updated With Video CA-Gov : Jerry Brown Rips on Bill Clinton for Telling the Truth Then Apologizes
++++++++++Updated+++++++++++
Found another copy of the video here
Well, whoever posted the video of Jerry Brown dissing bill Clinton has now taken it down form Youtube. But, here are the juicy quotes:
Jerry Brown has spent much of his race for governor assaulting the character of his Republican rival Meg Whitman. But now, in a jaw-dropping bit of rhetoric, he’s extended his criticism to a former Democratic president, Bill Clinton. And he did so by referring obliquely to Clinton’s dalliance with White House intern Monica Lewinsky.
Meg Whitman. She stops at nothing. She’s even got Clinton lying about me. That’s right. No, did you see that? Where he said I raised taxes. It’s a lie, he told a crowd at an East Los Angeles event Sunday. & I mean Clinton’s a nice guy but whoever said he always told the truth? You remember, right? There’s that whole story there about did he or didn’t he. OK, I did& I did not have taxes with this state.
The last line was a play on Clintons defense against the brewing scandal in early 1998 that he had a relationship with Lewinsky. At the time, Clinton asserted, I did not have sexual relations with that woman. Clinton subsequently admitted to an improper relationship with her and faced impeachment proceedings.
Jerry Brown can LIE, but Governor Moonbeam cannot hide – from the truth that is.
Here is the devastating ad from Republican Meg Whitman exposing Jerry Brown’s tax rasing policy while he was California Governor during the 1970’s and 80’s.
Here are the facts from Factcheck.org and the State of California Department of Finance.
I don’t think California voters are going to think too highly of Jerry Brown for:
1. Lying about former President Bill Clinton who, by the way, remains very popular in California.
2. Lying about his tax raising policies and rewriting his history as California Governor.
Update:
Now, Jerry Brown has apologized – at a hastily called news conference.
“Bill Clinton was an excellent president. It was wrong for me to joke about an incident from many years ago, and I’m sorry,” Brown said before attempting to steer the discussion back to questions about Whitman’s honesty.
“She hasn’t told the truth about my record as governor. She hasnt told the truth about my record as mayor. She hasn’t even told the truth about her own record,” Brown said. “I’ve made my share of mistakes, and my inappropriate joke about President Clinton is one of them. But from me you’ll always get the truth.”
Uh Huh……
Jerry Brown is an OLD MORON – jeez…..
