She will be ordained the democrat's next tyrant.
I hate him, so I am speaking objectively here. He has a stunning electoral record helped in part by the feckless California Republicans (great idea nominating a Mitt Romney clone for governor BTW). He can just about BS that he has been a success despite the massive unfunded liabilities since the MSM will cover for him. He also has no big scandals hanging over his head like Clintoon.
If I were to list Brown's plus points for the left, I'd say this
1) Scandal free 2) Can pretend to be a success 3) Governors are mostly better choices in history anyway 4) Popular with nutjob leftists 5) Latinos love him since he annexed California to Mexico 6) The press wants to shiv Hillary again for lols
2014 is about to climax and so we should be forward-looking to 2016 to mount the best conservative challenge possible, and thus, its important to anticipate the left. I have a feeling Killary is not going to get coronated, and that Moonbeam is going to be the one to steal it from her. We all know Moonbeam is underhanded enough to really dig into the hag's past. He can probably out-debate her too.
So how should we proceed if Jerry Brown jumps into the 2016 race. Perhaps a second Operation Chaos?
correction: F Chuck Todd, not Pollak (he just posted it)
I don’t hate Jerry Brown and you are right he is scandal free. The guy is not a crook, which is more than one can say about a lot of pols. Nevertheless, he’s going to be pretty old and he is truly a lefty.
I’m pretty sure the country, as a whole, will have had it with lefties by the end of the next two (interminable) years. Too bad they weren’t done with it 18 months ago.
Hillary may be a lefty, but she is not really perceived as one.
I don’t care, if the people in this country are so stupid to elect another D, anyone of them, we are finished.
I’d just as soon have Brown as any of the rest of them, quite frankly.
I’ll say it again: not a crook.
Yes, he’s a tough campaigner and many people seem to respect him. No, he can’t get elected at his age, which wikipedia lists as 76 now, (April 7, 1938) 78 at election time.
In the second worst of all possible cases, he might run for prez and win. I doubt that he’s as corrupt as Hitlery, who would be the worst.
Brown would have been preferable to Clinton in 1992. But people are dreaming if they think anyone can beat Hillary in 2016.
the clash of the geriatrics.
Effe F Chuck.
Despite her age, she's fresh for the national stage. Like the Hildebeest, she has two X chromosomes. But she comes with fewer wrinkles and a far shorter record. And she's way to the left, so she'll rally the base.
As for Moonbeam, yeah, he's a governor and not a blow-hard senator. But the problem is, he is the governor of Mexifornia! If the 'Rats nominate him, they will invite endless comparisons of California's economic performance to that of pick your state (the fewer stars, the better). Plus, he's ancient, like the Hildebeest and Granny.
Because God knows he has done such a great job with the state of California. Oh please.
The big drawback with Moonbeam is that he is a white male.
The Rats have had so much success with a semi-black, they will double down with someone with even stronger minority points.
They need a first woman, they need a first hispanic, they need a first lgbt.
A lesbian hispanic? The perfect Rat candidate!
And Mark Halperin argues that it’s going to be GORE!! OMG these people are delusional......Hillary will KILL anyone who gets in WITHOUT their permission to make her look better!!
Of course, as a CONSERVATIVE, I want Cruz...
She will be ordained the democrat's next tyrant.
I agree - I’ve said for months that I think Jerry would run in 2016.
He is too old
Wow, Clinton, Gore, and Brown.
Not a very deep bench.
Who believes California has even a close to being balanced budget? Raise your hands.
