    Default California Governor Race - Opinions?

    I know there are a few other Californians on Credit Card Forum. What's your take on the race between Whitman and Brown?

    Both are bad but the less of two evils I would say is Whitman. I like the business tax cuts and capital gains tax cuts shes proposing.

    Jerry is the one that started the pension problem and that is his core voter base so he won't do real pension reform, which is the #1 cause of our budget crisis.

    It was that housekeeper scandal that did it in for Whitman. I think the numbers once they're in will be a landslide win for Brown.

    Yep, not exactly a landslide but it shows that $200 million can't buy the govenor's seat!

    I'm not in cali so did not really follow the race. But you guys out there certainly have problems that are going to be very difficult for anyone to solve. Of course I'm in Arizona so I shouldn't talk!
