San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom announced this afternoon that he is withdrawing from the California governor's race.
More to follow.
I suspect that he found no big-name contributors to carry his campaign. This economic downturn...has trimmed back the dozen or so guys who would carry a governor or senator candidate. I’m guessing he added up the cost and the lack of funding....and gave up early. Face it...in California...you need $100 million to run a top-class governor’s race. Anything less than $60 million in your warchest, won’t do much.
OR ,Mabye the skeletons that hang around with “Any Twosome” need a little more room to do what they do!
His exwife, Kimberly Guilfoyle hinted very strongly that he was, uh, that he batted for the other team.
Altho, i don’t see that as being anything other than a positive for governor of CA.
