Californians... who the heck you voting for for governor?

[slybacon9]

I'm really lost. I've only been paying attention on the national level and it hit me that i better wake the hell up and start paying attention... So, what's the scoop? Who we likin and why?

[XemaSab]

1. Westly

I could never vote for a developer.

[alittlelark]

2. Westly here too

he seems soooo Clean!

[slybacon9]

3. i liked his ad. i actually just liked how blunt he was in the ad...

against bush etc.....

but hell with 29% approval ratings, against bush is the new fad.

[alittlelark]

5. I would support NO POLITICIAN that is not OVERTLY opposed to b*sh.

I am throwing the tea into Boston Harbor... I want a politician to support me.

[LeftyMom]

9. Same here and for the same reason

Developers are scum.

[Nailzberg]

4. I really like Wesley, but I'm still not sold.

I didn't see a clear winner on the recent televised debate.

Both candidates seemed good. Angeleides seemed to be relying on good Oppo-Research, which turns me off when it's so obvious. ON the other hand, Wesley seemed to be returning over and over again to simple stump lines.

I'm gonna need to see a little more of each before I make up my mind.

Hell, I haven't even bothered to register in CA, even though I live here 9 months of the year. I'm still voting in IL.

8. Follow the $$$$

'nuf said.

[Nailzberg]

10. Are you referring to Angeledies and the contributions from developers?

I'm not to keen on that. But still, I'm not so sure that it's enough to turn me away from him.

He was a developer himself, so it doesn't seem dirty that people in his field would be supporting him. I haven't done enough research into the race, but I'm leaning toward Wesley.

Hell, either of them is a vast improvement on Arnie.

[alittlelark]

11. Westly is more appealing the Angelides

I'm sick of 'old $$$'. Westly is not 'old school'. Angelides is.

I am looking for a fresh start.

[Nailzberg]

12. Agreed, but I'm not completely sold.

I could still change my mind. I haven't been turned off by either at this point.

[tishaLA]

15. My worry is that Westly doesn't have

much campaign experience and it might get rough when Arnold starts campaigning. That said, I'm leaning toward him.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. My dear slybacon9.....

Interesting username, BTW......

I like Westly right now.....it's mostly a gut feeling!

[GalleryGod]

13. Phil wins it ALL.

I can BET you your Union doesn't endorse Westly.
Right?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. My dear GalleryGod!

You know, I don't know! I haven't gotten anything from them yet.....

Technically of course, I am no longer a member, so I might not get any campaign lit from them.....

Time will tell, indeed!

Nice pic, BTW! Good old Ms Harris.....:puke:


:hi: :pals:

[Oeditpus Rex]

7. I'm leaning toward Westly

But there's still a lotta time.

[Mz Pip]

16. Westly

I'm a CTA member and they endorsed Angelides but I still like Westly.

I think he has a better shot at beating Ah-nold than Angelides does.

17. How do either poll against Arnold?

I know Arnie had low approval ratings a while back, but I haven't heard since.

[Initech]

18. I'm sure as hell not voting for Ahnuld

[huskerlaw]

19. Good question!

I'm new to CA politics, so I'm not really sure. I'm leaning towards Angelides though.

I guess I really don't care...either one of them is going to beat Ah-nuld...and be a vast improvement.
