The turning point for the Schwarzenegger for Governor campaign in 2006 was the day after the primary when Phil Angelides started being defined by the Governor as being out of step with California. It set the tone for the entire campaign and pushed the Governor into a commanding position for re-election.
This all might have turned out very differently had Steve Westley been the nominee as he had a plan for the day after the primary and was prepared to execute. Angelides was undefined still and the Governor did it for him.
Today we may have seen a similar turning point in the 2010 race for Governor. The Chamber of Commerce had a bold political move to define someone that is probably not even remembered by millions of California voters. When the ads got pulled today it ended the early definition process of the Democratic nominee.
If we do have a second "Governor Jerry Brown Show" the business community is the most likely target of his policies. They will complain to no end…. all because of Manat, Phelps & Phillips (sponsor of this site), Robert Simonds Company, Forest City Residential West, and Latham & Watkins. Thanks guys.
Any of you see SEIU having these types of issues? Not me.
