I Am Governor Jerry Brown
Fox and the L.A. Times are both projecting a Jerry Brown victory in California. Crank it up.

If it's Brown, flush it down.

The comeback kid!
Who would have thought that the road back to Sacramento would run through Oakland?
What's hilarious is he didn't even need to run a campaign here. He just sat back and watched Rosie O'Donnell self destruct.
The "comeback kid"?
How about a worn-out brain-dead lefty that CA urban unionists and welfare recipients elected once again?
One more dose of governor moonbeam! Wonder how much taxpayer money he'll use to buy votes this time.
It must be something in the (bottled) water.
Well, I-80 runs through Oakland to West Sacramento.
HOW?! Voters of Jerry Brown (and Barbara Boxer)...explain yourselves.
We're retarded! Are you happy now!?
Does this mean Linda Ronstadt has to sleep with him again?
He never tapped that.
He never tapped that?????
Bingo, were you alive in the 70's?
There was a time when they were constant companions. They even took an African safari vacation together. Johnny Carson commented on the fact that the press was so interested in the couple that every detail of their trip was being reported, down to the color of Ronstadt's sleeping accommodations, "a Brown sleeping bag."
I'm gonna say it again..
OK now I have the image of those two "together" if you know what I mean.....ewwwwwwww
Look on the bright side: Brown trying to bring order to California's fiscal meltdown will provide hours of entertainment.
Many monkeys fucking a football funny.
For those of us who live here... not as entertaining.
I live here zeebs, gotta laugh sometimes or they may find you up in the clock tower.
"or they may find you up in the clock tower."
That was in Texas
It could happen where ever there is a clock tower and a population of people though.
True enough
I know that GM, but the sentiment ... oh never mind
Career politicians, yay!

And the French use that overly-subsidized venue of transport. Wouldn't you under the circumstance?
Now it is 1984. Knock, knock at your front door..
Come quietly to the camp
You'd look nice as a drawstring lamp
Don't you worry, it's only a shower
For your clothes here's a pretty flower.
DIE on organic poison gas
Serpent's egg's already hatched
You will croak, you little clown
WHEN YOU MESS WITH PRESIDENT BROWN!
WHEN YOU MESS WITH PRESIDENT BROWN!

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie...
Thatsa Jerryatric
No on Green and yes on Brown. Now that's just fucked up, I don't care who ya are.
the good news is that now that California does not have a celebrity in the governors seat the rest of the nation can go back to ignoring California's politics.
Excuse me?!
nice work cali,
Brown, Boxer and Bankruptcy!
nice work cali,
Brown, Boxer and Bankruptcy!
Here's another note of consolation to you from Kevin D. Williamson:
This election means two things for California: 1. It is now more likely to end up needing a federal bailout, and 2. It is less likely to find Congress receptive to that idea.
Again, this is the headline I want to see in every commie leftist fish wrapper: "House Republicans to California: Drop Dead."

I like the cut of your jib.
Just what I was thinking.
California: You built up a epic pile of shit for your public finances. Now, go and sleep in it. When you're ready to clean it up, I hope you enjoy the shoveling, 'cause the rest of us are going to let you do it yourselves.
or maybe brown boxers and bankruptcy if you get my drift.....
Will he last a full term, or get recalled?
You don't have to be so blunt in predicting the demise of our state, you know.
It wasn't predicted, its voters willed it.
Fuck you California.
Jerry Brown is going to double down on green jobs, and Democrats from all over are going to try and make sure he looks good. With California as a petri dish for all of the Democrats job-exporting policies, it would be bad news for them to let him sink too far.
Okay, you can write the check.
Having just moved here recently, it's pretty obvious Californians care far more about appearing to be cutting edge on green technology, than reversing it's economic decline driven by the productive leaving the state.
So... if the productive are leaving the state and you just moved there...
For grad school, so you nailed it, I'm not productive.
I've loved this song for 30 years, but you motherfuckers at Reason have been wearing its ass out.
I think they'd do better with Marion Barry.
Well, he can't do worse than Arnold Gettothechoppanegger a.k.a Der Schei?e F?hrer.
Sez you.
Jerry Brown is "taking back California". Taking it back from whom?
Racist...
